Vintage neodymium glass elephant & squirrel paperweight figurines. Crafted from neodymium (also called alexandrite) glass, this piece changes color depending on the light source. Under incandescent bulbs, warm LEDs, and traditional household lighting, the glass appears lavender to purple. Under fluorescent lighting, cool white LEDs, or natural daylight, it shifts toward icy blue. The effect comes from rare earth elements added during the glassmaking process and is one of the most sought-after characteristics in collectible art glass. • Squirrel is signed; Elephant is Unsigned • May be from Sweden or Murano, Italy circa 1970's-90's. • No flea bites, chips or cracks. 5.5" tall x 5" wide x 2" deep 1lb 8oz
