Phoenix Paperweights was a short lived studio venture founded soon after the closure of Perthshire Paperweights in 2002. It was created by William Manson with a handful of former artists from Perthshire.  Weights are “one-of-ones” or in limited numbered editions. These weights are typically signed with a “PP” signature cane and hand inscription to the base.
