This is one of Mario's original bird house.  With the flying birds are above the bird house.  This sits atop of a natural granite with shavings in the hole that holds the pole.


Mario Jason was born in Argentina and spent some time as a child in Israel where he attended Bat Yam's School of Drawing and Sculpture. His true education as an artist, however, took place in Los Angeles, California. There, at the Otis Parson Art Institute, Jason studied both dance and anatomy. Subsequently, he developed an acute understanding of the body in movement.


The large bronze figures of Mario Jason are well known throughout the art community. Mario is known for his dance sculptures since the early 80's and for his life size figures.

 This clear glass owl paperweight with controlled bubbles has no makers mark. Today when we think of owls we usually think of them as a beautiful and valuable asset to the natural ecology feeding on undesirable rodents, insects, frogs, lizards, and birds. We marvel at their silent flight, incredible eyesight and hearing, and their ability to almost completely turn their heads around. 

However, this wasn't always the case. To the Greeks the owl was the favorite creature of Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom. 

The Greeks revered the owl and protected them. To have an owl fly over an army before battle was sign of impending victory. 

To the Romans, the owl was a creature from the underworld and a portend of impending doom or death. To hear the hoot of an owl meant that there would soon be a death. 

The English adopted much of their owl folklore from their Roman conquerors. For them, the owl was a sinister creature. It hunted in the night, a time closely associated with death and evil. 

In very good + condition, without chips, cracks or fleabites he measures 5 3/4 inches tall, 3 1/4 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches deep. 

An addition to any Owl Figurine or Paperweight Collection.

In excellent condition.  Very Very rare, 1st edition, original, bound, single sided, hand typed, mimeographed transcripts of the 2nd Nurmberg trials, two volume set. These were the 2nd tier Nazi officers to be tried, the most famous being Ernst Von Weizsaecker. Other include Gustav Adolph, Von, Moyland, Keppler, Bohle, Woerman, RitterErdsmandorf, Veesenmayer, Dietrich, etc, etc.  These we give exclusively to the prosecutors & judges. 

See> /wiki/Ernst_von_Weizs%C3%A4cker

These came from the family of the head prosecutor, Thomas J. Whalon, whose name is embossed on the spine, & a note from his nephew & last surviving member of the Whalon family. A REAL museum piece. I also have pictures from the trial being sold separately.


Ernst Von Weizsäcker (May 25, 1882 – August 4, 1951) was a German diplomat and politician. He served as Secretary of State at the Foreign Office from 1938 to 1943, and as German Ambassador to the Holy See from 1943 to 1945. He was a member of the prominent Weizsäcker family, and the father of German President Richard von Weizsäcker and physicist and philosopher Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker.


Weizsäcker was arrested on July 25, 1947, in Nuremberg in connection with the Ministries Trial, also known as the Wilhelmstrasse Trial, after the location of the German Foreign Office in Berlin. These American military tribunal started before and finished during the Berlin blockade confrontation with the Soviets and proceeded without participation of the USSR; they were also much milder in conduct and outcome than the first series of war crimes trials in 1946. No European judges were involved in the trial, which was very controversial because Weizsäcker was considered by many to be closely associated with the anti-Nazi resistance and as a moderate force at the Foreign Office during the war; Winston Churchill called his trial a "deadly error.".[22]

The Olive, Olea europaea, is a species of a small tree in the family Oleaceae, native to the coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean Basin (the adjoining coastal areas of southeastern Europe, western Asia and northern Africa) as well as northern Iran at the south end of the Caspian Sea.

The process of producing an olive wood craft requires labor intensity and consists of many stages, often involving the work of multiple artisans.

Depending on what the particular product is, the process could take up to 45 days. Most professional artisans go through six to seven years of training.

Olive wood is used because it is easier to carve than other woods and could be done accurately with simple hand tools. Also, it has a diverse variety of natural color and tonal depth, due to the annual structure. It is also resistant to decay and receptive to a number of surfacing treatments

In very good condition without splits or cracks it does have some dings in the lid surface which I have shown in my pictures and it measures 1 3/8 inches high, 3 inches wide and 2 1/4 inches deep. It comes without a key but has a magic lock that needs a tool like a pen tip or nut pick to hold in for it to open.

Four hardwood turned legs are secured with metal plates to the top section.  The golden tone crocheted top has been attached to the underside by metal tacks/anchors and is in very good condition without any rips or tears.
