Mini Thistle Glass Paperweight (Scottish) (Floral) - 65mm | Caithness Glass
Masterfully handcrafted using traditional glass techniques, this paperweight features a compact, rounded form. Suspended within the clear, high-quality crystal is a miniature, intricate version of the Scottish Thistle. The thistle is created using a combination of graphite stencil and millifiori canes, these are melted into the surface of the blue and purple glass and then encased in a final gather of clear glass.
The Thistle bloom is typically rendered in vibrant purple or violet hues, often rising from a base of swirling greens and clear glass that beautifully catches the light. Despite its smaller size, the detail of the internal flower is exquisite. The clarity of the crystal magnifies the inner artwork, creating a tiny, vibrant world within the glass.
This mini paperweight is ideal for those who appreciate understated elegance. It serves as a perfect gift for souvenir collectors, a small token of affection, or a subtle yet beautiful addition to a desk or shelf. It is a wonderful way to carry a piece of Scotland with you. Each paperweight is handcrafted by Caithness artisans in Crieff, making this the perfect Scottish gift for you or someone you love. Each paperweight is carefully wrapped and boxed in a branded Caithness gift box.
