I am new here and this is my first post so I hope I am doing this correctly.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am hoping to get some feedback on an Item I recently aquired.</p><p><br /></p><p>My dad purchased this from a museum that was closing down. It belonged to a known Political Figure from Quebec, Canada. He was alive 1786 - 1871.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no info on the piece itself other than who it belonged to.</p><p><br /></p><p>I believe it&#039;s a Paperweight made of Crystal.</p><p><br /></p><p>It has a miniature French Compass embedded in it (No markings but SO instead of SW which suggest it&#039;s French)</p><p><br /></p><p>I first thought it was an Inkwell since there is also a hole on the top side but not as deep as regular inkwells...</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps the hole was used as a display for something else?</p><p><br /></p><p>Approx. 3.5&quot; x 3.5&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Any information or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris B.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
