Edinburgh Rock is a very specific confection Wuff, - a sweetie, not a pw. :spls:
You'll have to try some when you're over (the ginger stuff is the best!).
There are no marks on my weight at all - the base is not completely polished either - it's slightly satinised. I prefer it without the facet, it came in a proper box and has the sticky label warning you not to put it in direct sunlight.
If I can't get more cards, you can have mine - it was with Scotland's Glass and specialist interest such as yours, that I had in mind when I bought them.
In Crieff, they do have the remainder of the unsold weights which came from the previous glassworks, there are some stunners, and there are seconds like the one I bought.
There are only a few on show, but more seem to keep coming out. Some of the ones on show (for sale) include the absolutely MASSIVE things - sort of flat topped, about 7" in diameter, designed by Helen MacDonald (I think) but made by Franco Toffolo.
Franco Toffolo has finally retired completely from glass - he's no longer working with John Deacons and Willie Manson. He's moved down to England now.
Sadly, I never got introduced to him, but I did see him hurrying out of the Strathearn Gallery a couple of years ago - it wasn't until he'd gone I was told who he was.
