I think this paperweight is Edinburgh Crystal - made by Caithness?

Yep, I agree.   I thought exactly the same as you when looking at the weight on ebay a few minutes before turning to the GMB and finding your post.   


Cheers

Design is called "Lilac Vine" - unlimited edition.  Shown in the 1986 catalogue.  Has the E cane and the small flowing Caithness etched signature on the base 

Got excited when I saw the first posting in case it was one of the few Edinburgh ones i havent got - but no!!!  Alas!!
