Inspired by the magnificent stained glass windows of Gothic cathedrals, this extraordinary paperweight by Damon McNaught features four large white quatrefoil panels set against a vibrant canary-yellow ground, each filled with intricate arrangements of colorful millefiori. At the heart of the composition is a large pink rose cane, encircled by rich cobalt-blue floral canes, creating a striking central focal. Additional complex millefiori fill the spaces between the panels, while a border of alternating blue, white, and plum-colored star canes extends down the sides to form a beautifully executed stave basket.

What makes this paperweight especially remarkable is its innovative construction. MacNaught begins with a two-layered cameo glass disc, yellow over opaque white. A modern precision cutting process removes the yellow layer to unveil crisp white panels, forming a Gothic window-like framework. Carefully arranged millefiori canes are fused to this prepared surface, then the entire composition is encased in clear crystal. This fusion of traditional millefiori craftsmanship and modern cutting methods opens new possibilities in paperweight design, resulting in a richly detailed, jewel-like work that honors centuries-old cathedral windows while charting a fresh direction for the art form.
