ok so Im 80% sure this is chinese, could someone confirm? It looks like old glass, few "bits" in it, and the canes look slightly more complex than the older chinese, so I risked £3 on it being the other 20% which was St Mande.....

I would say Chinese, but that's only a guess

Definitely Chinese, IMHO. A couple of the canes look the same as this older Chinese weight of mine - specifically the white with pink centre and the acid green ones.
Still a nice little weight, though :)
-
Definitely 1930s Chinese.

Hi Ian.
Have a look at the early Chinese paperweight images here (http://www.pwts.co.uk/pages/Chinese%20older%20paperweights.htm). Very similar to yours.
