Hi,
     Can you help ID this. It measures 4cm diameter, so it is really dinky sized!
Thanks again
Vickie

Looks like early Perthshire to me.
I collect Scottish and Italian paperweights and anything else that strikes my fancy.

Hi Vickie

I think it is a Perthshire PP3 design, from the 1969-1973 period. The similar design made again after 1984 had a concave polished base and 'P' cane.
