Description: Baccarat 1971 Gridel Series Magnum Millefiori Rooster Limited Edition Paperweight Baccarat 1971 Gridel Series Magnum Millefiori Rooster Limited Edition Paperweight. dated 1971. This modern millefiori paperweight features a large central black Gridel rooster silhouette facing left on a white background. The rooster cane is set in the center of a concentric design with four rings of millefiori canes, including a ring of all 18 Gridel canes. The design is set on a lace ground. Baccarat's complex signature / date cane "B 1971" is in the third ring at 3 o'clock. The rooster appears twice, once in the center and a smaller one facing right at 2 o'clock. This design was released in 1971 in a limited edition of 1,200 pieces. This is number 519 in that edition. This paperweight is also signed on the base with two acid etched Baccarat marks along with the year (1971) and edition number (519). The year is hard to read on the base as it was engraved on top of one of the Baccarat marks. I show several pictures of this signature taken from different angles. An extra large example.Please Note: The stand shown in the pictures is not included with the paperweight. It is shown for illustration only.Note on white glare: Please ignore the white areas, they are glare from the light.Note for International buyers: If the final price is $400 or more, this paperweight must be shipped by USPS priority mail.

In 1846 Baccarat introduced the popular Gridel figures in their closepack millefiori paperweights. It was named after Emil Gridel, the nephew of Jean-Baptiste Toussaint the general manager of Baccarat. Toussaint saw Gridel making paper cutouts of animals and saw an opportunity to incorporate these silhouettes in millefiori paperweights. From 1971 to 1979 Baccarat issued a modern Gridel series of millefiori paperweights based on eighteen Gridel figures. Each paperweight has a large Gridel figure in the center with smaller versions of the other figures included in the design. There are variations in orientation and color as well as the types of canes in each design and it is possible to amass a very large collection covering just this series.Very large size: Just over 3 3/8" diameter by 2 1/16" high. The base is polished flat. The profile is slightly flat. Signature: The paperweight is signed with Baccarat's complex signature cane "B 1971" in the design. It also has two acid etched Baccarat marks on the base along with the year (1971) and edition number (519). The year is hard to read on the base as it was engraved on top of one of the Baccarat marks. I show several pictures of this signature taken from different angles. Condition: Excellent condition. There are some scratches on the base, but no other cracks, chips, or scratches found on inspection. Allan's Paperweights is owned by Allan Port.
