The second paperweight looks like Rainbow Gem, but it's a bothery awful photo. I sold one recently and there's better photos of it here in Frank's Caithness catalogue.

The first one though looks Chinese to me.

Which pages, will shortly explode :shock: - but no need to hold your breath, new pages take a while and this lot will be added en masse.

Hi Frank, the second one is a Caithness second of Rainbow Gem which you already have on your catalogue.

The first paperweight is Chinese, although the seller thought it was Caithness when she bought it.
