This is my first cane paperweight. The only thing that I've had with canes in it was a Caithness letter opener.
Anyway, after reading through some old posts, I'm convinced that this is a Chinese weight as it has an un-polished base. I think this is called a concentric as the canes are (more or less) symetrical? It has some unusual blobs of white and blue underneath the canes but I have no idea why as it's on one side only.

So is this a Chinese weight or Murano, either way, I love it. :lol:

Hi Top Cat,
It's a lovely Chinese weight with very cheerful, bright colours. Enjoy it!
