An iron grey ox rests on a starry-patterned red and white millefiori background. Peach blossoms dotted with dewdrops bloom beside it. The saturated green of its lead recalls the springtime palette of the leaves surrounding it. A gentle and sympathetic animal, the fabled ox comes down from the sky to work the fields in aide of men suffering from famine. He brings with him joy and abundance, symbolised by the spring peach blossoms that bloom all around him. His celestial origin is recalled by the stars of the millefiori and the golden cloud motif.

Saint Louis is the only crystal factory in the world still able to make paperweights. They have been reinventing the art form every year since 1953 with creations born from the imagination and dexterity of the paperweight atelier’s master glassmakers made for collectors and new enthusiasts alike. Within the Atelier, two glassmakers are Meilleurs Ouvriers de France and one is a Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres.
As the jewel of Saint Louis, paperweights showcase many of the atelier’s most impressive techniques millefiori, sulphide inclusion, overlay, twisting and lampwork captured in a unique and fascinating object that has the fragile eternity of the moment.
