The reason why paperweights exist was because, prior to air conditioning, offices were built to have a constant flow of air through them to cool down workers.

I was going to mention something similar to this!

We've all experienced first-hand how irritating it can be when your papers start flying all over the place because the windows are open.

There is a lot of interesting history behind paperweights and I would love to find some of the originals in a museum. https://www.paperweight.org/museums/
