Lincoln Cathedral Glass Paperweight Quatrefoil Motif

Description Lincoln Cathedral’s breathtaking stained glass is one reason many believe this to be the finest Gothic cathedral in the British Isles.  Much of its medieval glass has been lost, but what remains is the most important collection of English early thirteenth-century glass after Canterbury Cathedral. The nineteenth-century windows demonstrate crucial developments in the history of stained glass. This beautiful stained glass paperweight is a replica of the many Quatrefoil motifs found in the windows of Lincoln Cathedral. Quatrefoils are a four-lobed shape common in much Gothic ornament. Each stained glass paperweight is made in the borders of Scotland and Cumbria and comes presented in an ivory and gold gift box. Measures approx. 7cm in diameter and 2cm deep.
