    I got these glass paperweights at a garage sale today and while I’ve seen similar online I’m having trouble identifying them. Can anyone please help me with perhaps a maker and a value?

    First impression ...Scottish..for 1, 3, 4 Scramble #2 could be almost anywhere..
    It is very hard to see all detail in them.
    Is that damage on bottom of #4 and what is in very center of center cane on #1?

    Cab you number these? They're Perth and Strathearn, the scramble is Aladdins Cave.

    No damage on the bottom of 4. I think it’s just the picture I took. They’re all somewhat smooth.

    The scramble, as I said, is an Aladdins Cave, Perthshire. Value varies slightly according to the number of layers, but they come up often on Ebay.

    The others are Strathearn and Perth, tricky to tell which is which as the makers went from one to the other. Allan who runs this site, is a serious expert - http://www.paperweights.com/paperweights/index.htm . The Scotlands Glass website also has patterns.
