PAUL J. STANKARD EARLY WORKS

Diorio Collection 1983 Jack-in-the-Pulpit on Blue Paperweight
This unique 1983 "Jack-in-the-Pulpit on Blue Paperweight" from the Diorio Collection is 3" in diameter. It features a Jack-in-the-Pulpit flower with the characteristic three leaves. A mature stalk of red berries and yellow leaves along with a dark brown corm with off-white root system show the plant's maturity. The background is a beautiful translucent cobalt blue, and the entire work is encased in high quality clear crystal.

The paperweight is signed "Paul J. Stankard," and marked "1983 Botanical Study" below a black and white "S" cane. The Jack-in-the-Pulpit is found on Stankard's woodland property, and is native to the eastern part of the United States.

This is a rare Stankard design. Fewer than ten were created in the early 1980s (four of which are shown on this Web site).
