Limited Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is certainly a beautiful Scottish paperweight when it is on display.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt dates to 1997 - and was made by the paperweight artists, Jason Green \u0026amp; Neil Allan. It is entitled Los Tres Amigos - which refers to the three scarlet red flower heads inside - as well as the three-faceted sides - which meet in a cut-off triangular-shaped peak at the top. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was from a limited of 350 (closed at 304) and on its release it had a price ticket of £125. This one is numbered 167 on the base. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a very unusual shape - it is a faceted domed weight - with three teardrop-shaped polished facets on each side (with satin sections between each polished facet window). They meet at a flattened peak at the top. The base colour is inky blue. In the center sits three red roses bus - with mottled white petals below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike my similar Daisy weight (NOW SOLD) - the facets cause strange reflections in the weight - and you get a mirror image appearing from above.    \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAgain this is a harder weight to source and it is certainly a very attractive weight - it must have taken great skill to have made this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is in good vintage condition with no chips or cracks. However, there is quite a profusion of light scratches on the base - which must have occurred with the weight has been moved about on a shelf or tabletop over the last twenty years - of course, you do not see these when the weight is on display - but only when held in raking light. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese \"movement\" marks on the base are reflected in my price (as well as its rarity value) - if it were in completely perfect condition it would probably have had a price tag on it of around £150.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: Height is 3 1\/2 inches - and at the widest point it is 3 inches. Unpacked it weighs: 600 grams. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePostage will be with Royal Mail Tracked Post and applied at the checkout  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31667604684864,"sku":"Drawer 2 Middle Drawer","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/1997-caithness-glass-paperweight-los-tres-amigos-by-neil-allan-limited-edition-423.webp?v=1784973067","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/caithness-glass-vintage-paperweight-los-tres-amigos-neil-allan-1997","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
