Topic: ID help - Perthshire?

I have a pretty little mini paperweight which looks very like a Perthshire piece, but I cannot spot it in the book (which may be me being incompetent.... )  Top facet and 5 side facets, concave polished base.  It has a centre 'J' cane, but I suspect that is the Perthshire date cane for 1978, rather than the J Glass signature cane - it does not look quite right for one of theirs.

Diameter 1 1/2 inch / 39 mm; height 1 inch / 27 mm.

Anyone know who made it?

According to THE book only PP14 and PP32 used letter date canes - your weight is neither of them.

There may have been different cane designs for the same year - but at least the cane on my 1978-PP14 looks different.

Are there not a load of fake K glass weights out there which appeared at the same time as the fake PY ones?  I've certainly had a very similar weight to this one with a J cane but the quality isn't quite good enough to be J glass.
