Over the last few years people have started to lose interest in paperweights and they are not as popular as they once were. This is mainly due to the fact that technology has advanced and we no longer have piles of paper work clogging up our desks, due to computers, smart phones and tablets. We have the ability now to be able to read, work and write using modern technology like this.
However, I know for a fact that I still use paper quite often, whether it be for short notes, post-its, articles from magazines etc. etc. For keeping items like this from flying around the office a glass paperweight is just the solution. They also make lovely ornaments and pieces of art to look at. Box Brownie Trading offer a variety of inspiration glass, vintage paperweights that come in pairs. Here are a selection of their finest products below.

2) Angels are watching...
This beautiful item features a lovely, what looks like a hand drawn picture of an angel. This could represent the guardian angel of a loved one and I personally think this can make a special unique gift for a child that is close to you. Whether it be a son, daughter, grandson, granddaughter, nephew or niece.
3) Frenchie

This product features a really simple yet beautiful design of a French bulldog and would make a gorgeous gift for a friend or relative that loves dogs. I’m sure there is someone you know whether it be a family member of friend that is a dog fanatic! If so, why not treat them to something like this, especially if they are an art lover as well or work with paper a lot!
4) My Whole Heart...

“My whole heart for my whole life”. Isn’t that a truly beautiful quote? With the love heart design of the paperweight also, it makes a fantastic idea for a present for that special someone in your life. Whether it be a girlfriend/boyfriend or husband/wife.
