Title: ID help - Edinburgh?

I think this paperweight (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5574631383&toolid=10001&campid=5336261829&customid=&icep_item=350283968535&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229508&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg) is Edinburgh Crystal - made by Caithness?

Yep, I agree.   I thought exactly the same as you when looking at the weight on ebay a few minutes before turning to the GMB and finding your post.   


Cheers

... and i've just checked  -  it has exactly the same E cane as my Edinburgh Crystal papeweight inscribed on the base "Edinburgh".

Design is called "Lilac Vine" - unlimited edition.  Shown in the 1986 catalogue.  Has the E cane and the small flowing Caithness etched signature on the base 

Got excited when I saw the first posting in case it was one of the few Edinburgh ones i havent got - but no!!!  Alas!!
