I don't often get this lucky, but I've just bought a LE Caithness - 'Caprice' no. 664 of 750 by Colin Terris, 1983 with a 'book price' of £50 - for £1.71 :shock: :D

It was just identified as a 'Lovely Flower Paperweight' and I thought it was pretty and would go in the cabinet with my 'dime-a-dozen' Chinese crimp flowers, so I put a small 'registering my interest' bid and forgot about it.
It arrived this morning, and when I looked at the base ..... WOW! :D

Very jammy :lol: It's lovely. Obviously not from one of our members :shock:

Nice one Leni!

What a lovely surprise! they don't happen often enough....

that was on my watch list, i laughed to myself when you won it and pmsl when you got for £1.71 :lol:

Did you just forget to bid, Ray? :twisted:
I'm interested; did you recognise it for what it was, or just think, as I did, that it was a nice looking weight?

i thought caithness, but just the run of the mill not a terris design
