Colin Terris joined the company in 1968 and produced some of the first modern style paperweights like the Planets set.

Paul Ysart, Colin Terris and Peter Holmes were some of the early designers making innovative millefiori paperweights during the 1970’s.

By 1993, 44 designers made paperweights for Caithness, with over 2,300 designs being produced. There were limited and unlimited editions produced, with the limited ones being the most sought after.

Caithness Glass is still in operation today.

I personally bought a Caithness paperweight at Harrods in London for my late father who was a small time weight collector. It was during my layover as a flight attendant when I first started at TWA. Late 1989 or early 1990. It was entitled “Soaring” has two eagles or seagulls opposite each other flying over a purple base with 8 air bubbles surrounding the purple base. A look of white snow like covering on the purple base. The weight is about 2 inches high and measures 10 inches around. I believe I paid about $125 back then. Perhaps someone has knowledge of this weight, or where I might find more information. I was hoping I could post a photo here… but I don’t see that option.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
