Paperweight Collection
Harriet N. Smith '45 was an avid collector of
glass paperweights and a devoted Laurentian. Through her estate plan,
she
arranged for
her collection to be given to St. Lawrence with instructions that
the collection be sold and the proceeds used to fund the Delaware County,
New York Scholarship Endowment. The collection will be sold by Christie's
New York. Christie's describes it thus:
A Collection of Fine Antique
Glass Paperweights from the Harriet Smith Living Trust including
(from left) a Clichy pink rose on white latticinio
weight, mid-19th century; a Saint Louis white double clematis on
aventurine ground weight, mid-19th century; a Saint Louis hollow white
rose weight,
mid-19th century.
