Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is a jewel in the city’s crown. Constructed in the 12th century, it is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Paperweight Workshop wanted to pay homage to this monument, which has survived many centuries and ordeals.
The Blue Rose Window paperweight is inspired by the Cathedral’s North Rose Window, one of the building’s many majestic stained glass windows. Constructed around 1250, it was an architectural wonder of its time and is one of the largest rose windows from that period. It is characterised by its blue tones, which draw the gaze deep into the window’s infinite.
Stained glass and crystal are both forms of French glassmaking know how that are illuminated by light. This new creation draws on the parallel between these two crafts.
The Blue Rose Window paperweight, a limited and numbered edition of 68 pieces.
