The canes look like Murano.
The way of making the weight looks scottish.
I have two weights which looking similar.
Is it possible that Edinburgh used Murano Millefiori canes in their weights? ( look at the sticker)
Please the also next message with pics.
Regards

It's Murano, and possibly, the Edinburgh sticker was added afterwards, but from my knowledge and from the Edinburgh weights I've had, Caithness made the canes for Edinburgh weights.

I agree it's Murano - the Edinburg stickers read "International Imported" so there should be no doubt that these were not made in Scotland.

Edinburgh Crystal outsourced weight production overseas, after Caithness, so these are Edinburgh Crystal. Where actually made is a separate issue.
