I have for sale a gorgeous Perthshire limited edition 1980 PP35 “Chessboard” paperweight. It’s comprised of 5 squares in a cross outlined in twists with each square containing a large millefiori cane framed by a box of small canes. Between the squares are wedges of small canes in a 1-2-3-4-5 pattern. There is a “P1980″ cane in the translucent ocean blue base. It is featured in “The Complete Guide to Perthshire Paperweights” by Colin & Debby Mahoney and. Gary & Marge McClanahan p. It appears when tilted a certain way in the light or if magnified as an appx. 1.5mm shadow somewhere between the pink/blue millefiori square and center (see last two pics). Otherwise it is in excellent condition with no other chips, cracks, etc. And measures 3″ diameter x 2 1/8″ tall. Please ask for an invoice if you would like this service. Once tracking says “delivered” it is out of my hands. Due to lighting conditions and individual screen resolutions colors may vary slightly from pics.
