Paperweights

We will show a range of candleholders/candlesticks here.

Most of them are named after places local to the Kings Lynn factory: Sheringham, Brancaster, Sandringham, Cromer, and there are others that were given a descriptive name, such as the Helix, Bulbous and the Whorl.

The colours can be quite variable and different shades can often be seen by comparisons.
