These were most likely made at the glass museum at Pilkington's in St Helens

Thanks christine
i think we have had this discussion before on another weight. not sure if they were made by the workers for extra cash or to show people how they were made. are they still being made today so it could be any age ???

As far as I know they aren't making demo paperweights any more but the glass museum has been in existence a long while. I first went almost 30 years ago.
