Hi Leni,
I actually looked at that site having seen it listed on the Great Glass website and it does state that it uses gold in their creations and there are gold inclusions in this paperweights. I have tried to telephone the company to find out if they ever made paperweights as their current gallery only shows large plate or sheet glass displays. Unfortunately to date I have only received answer phone replies. I will keep trying.
The signiture does look like it could be Greenhalgh although the last two letters/figures could be 97.
Thanks for your help,
Bryn

http://www.caudwellscrafts.co.uk/ if you click on this link which is on the Greenhalgh site, and then click on glass studio, this takes you to a page where there is an email link. Emailing might be better than phoning..... :)

Hi,
Yes, I've had it confirmed that the paperweight was made at the Greenhalgh glass studio. They have changed their production to the more architectoral subjects of late.
Cheers,
Bryn
