I saw this morn as I pass’d by
How quick you did your needle ply
To fingers which can move so nimble
I’ve sent this little silver thimble.
And own I wish to call you mine
Upon this day of Valentine.
The thimble is an embossed metallic paper from a 1930s envelope lining, or the lining in the Christmas card. I forget which part I took it from.

I tried to get good photos of the paperweights but I'd forgotten how hard it was to photograph them. They truly do look better than in the photos. Some of the images look distorted but it's due to reflections and the glass.
