A charming pair of clear glass owl paperweights, each beautifully capturing the wise and symbolic form of the owl.
- Larger Owl: Heavily textured and sculptural in execution, this piece features finely detailed feathering and large circular eyes, making it as much a decorative object as it is a functional weight.
- Smaller Owl: A solid and compact design, branded Riedel, Austria, on the base. Known primarily for their fine crystal stemware, Riedel occasionally produced decorative objects, and this rare piece reflects their quality of glassmaking with crisp details and excellent clarity.
Together, the pair makes a striking desk or shelf display, balancing modernist restraint with playful natural inspiration.

The pair is in excellent vintage condition with no chips, scratches, or cracks – only slight signs of wear consistent with age and use.
Dimensions:
Bigger owl: 10cm W X 4cm D X 12cm H
Smaller owl: 6cm W X 3cm D X 6cm H
