The paperweight is further enhanced by a crisp white overlay framing a rich green accent background, creating a dramatic contrast that highlights the finely modeled presidential portrait. Featuring radiating starburst wedge cuts and a frosted center rosette. The overall composition is balanced by the geometric exterior faceting, which multiplies the interior cameo views, and is gathered by a scalloped base edge bearing an acid etched Baccarat mark.
