Two Scottish Strathearn Glass paper weights c1968
Mid Century polychrome radial twists interspersed with cane - each 46cm diameter
Strathearn paperweights from The Strathearn Glass Ltd was a short-lived concern, trading for just fifteen years from its base at Crieff, twenty miles or so to the west of Perth.
Founded in 1965, the company was initially underwritten by the Teacher’s Distillery in order to produce its signature ‘squashed bottle’ ashtrays formerly made by Vincent Vasart’s smaller premises in Perth itself. It was immediately apparent that there were commercial opportunities to be exploited through having retail outlet alongside the new manufactory, and the product range expanded accordingly.
Lovely condition, mild satisfactory ware to the base
