Unknown antique millefiori paperweight

Hi.  I got today another member of a small group of unknown antique paperweights - this is number 9, 3 of which I have only seen as images.  Seven of these 9 have turned up in the UK, which suggests they may have a UK origin.  They share a small range of canes, and are made of full lead crystal, and have concave polished bases. I wrote a short article about them in PCC Newsletter 114. I have included images of two more below.  Has anyone else got one (or more...) in their collection?
