This was from the estate sale of a lady who was a serious collector of art glass. Her Ken Rosenfeld Pink Dahlia must have been her most prized paperweight in a vast collection, based upon how it was displayed in her home. My photographs don't do justice to the skilled rendering of a delicate dahlia blossom and bud, resting on a calm surface of the deepest cobalt blue.
I've learned a considerable amount in researching the work of this extraordinary artist, who seemed to favor beautiful single flower designs mid-career, but in searching well over a hundred examples of his work, I've only found one other dahlia. Approximately 2.5" wide and 2" high.
