Perthshire Paperweight Dish
« on: February 25, 2013, 02:09:26 PM »
This is my first piece of Perthshire  ;D This is 12 cm wide. It has the 'P' Cane in the centre. How do you date them ? I assume its a Dish. Would be a shame  to use it as an ashtray that one piece was listed as  :o
Pete. :-)

The design is that of a PP62 paperweight - made from 1983 to at least 1997. As far as I know, if there was a minor problem with a paperweight (discovered whilst making it) it was often "converted" to a pin dish.
