Garlanded Fish

Within the garland of pink-green-blue and blue-white-red canes, a pink fish with orange fins, tail and mouth, and yellow-and-black eye, is set on a gently mottled green ground.

The signature cane is quite blurred in the photo and this is how it appears in reality. Set at the inner edge of the lower pair of blue canes, it rests at an angle and is also beneath a part of the dome that has a little undulation in the clear glass. Although the overall quality of the weight is very good, small imperfections can be seen when examined at close quarters. Distractions such as these can be found in many of Paul Ysart's weights, but usually only when examined at very close range.

Clear glass indicates 1950s or later. UV tests confirm pre-Caithness.

Diameter 3 inch, Height 2 inch.
