Description Was given to us by grandmother. Has a small tag on the bottom showing date of purchase of 3/93 and price of $295.00. It has other markings on the bottom but I'm not sure what they mean. There is limited information about the discontinued Royal Crown Derby Paperweights and I'm curious to find out the value and history.

In 1981, the company introduced a line of paperweights which have become immensely popular. Rich colors and intricate gilding remain the distinguishing features of Royal Crown Derby. Royal Crown Derby continues to produce patterns in the imari style. Fine dinnerware dealers world-wide carry many of these patterns, including Old Imari, Traditional Imari, Red Aves, Blue Mikado, and Olde Avesbury. One guy in Canada wants $750.00 for it.
