The cane colors were carefully chosen to contrast beautifully with the translucent color base. There is the Perthshire 1982 date cane on the base. Condition of this weight is excellent. The edition size of this paperweight was 300, but only 243 were actually made. Since the base colors vary, identical versions of this paperweight are even more limited.
