Hi
As I'm at my desk with my books beside me thought I'd check this for you, the design does appear to be Wild Pansies 1985C (PP was not used in the anual collection weights) BUT it should only have 1 top facet not the side facets yours seems to have?

thanks Nick , i just purchased 5 PP weights , though im not really a weight collector i have a large collection of Perthshire Paperweights vases , lamps bowls etc, and was given the chance to purchase these ,
and decided it would be good to try and find out as much info on them as possible, i have seen other wild pansy weights, though different colour and not facet cut at sides

a slightly bigger pic of the weight, and also just noticed that on the picture the canes around the edge where it is faceted are just reflections from the ring of canes inside the weight
