Millifiori Paperweight ID
« on: March 22, 2012, 11:52:09 AM »
Not really offay with paperweights but on some research I have done, the base is looking Caithness.  The label is too worn and unreadable.  Any ideas please?

Not Caithness, Strathearn I think. Someone else will confirm.
Please try using the attach facility for your pictures so they stay with the thread and don't disappear

Resize them so that the maximum dimension is about 700 pixels. That usually works.

Definitely a daily production Strathearn weight, 1964/5 to 1980.
