Weight Number 3

Spoke pattern. 3 inch diameter. 1 3/4 inch height.

Spoke 03 Top

Two concentric rows of daisy-style canes around a central open-centred cane.

A "1-2" pattern of canes is formed by 8 twists having a double spiral of yellow around an orange thread core.

Black ground.

Spoke 03 Cane

Bubbles are evident at the edges of the canes.

The daisy pattern canes are seen in many earlier Vasart weights. The open-centred central cane is also a known design over many years of production.

The outer canes are of a higher quality than the inner ones. In particular, the ones with the wavy blue and white star pattern are distinctive.

Spoke 03 Side

A very flat dome.

Although the canes are of mixed design quality, they are all evenly set upon the ground.

From UV testing and the structure of the canes, I believe this is an "Ysart Brothers" period weight.
