Post by: malcmat on June 15, 2011, 11:02:32 AM

Hi, could use your help in the ID name / year of this caithness p/w.
It has a flower on a surface of controlled bubbles base scarlet in colour with a flat viewing surface on the p/w.
2.5 inches dia and signed C11G on the base.
Many thanks

The CIIG means it's a second or at least non-standard item for a start.

Dewdrop Orchid - Heather (they come also as Kingfisher and Cobalt).
Designed by Helen MacDonald and first issued in 1999 - one of my favourite unlimited designs (though I prefer Cobalt).
