    Howdy y'all,
    I inherited this Caithness Glass paper weight after my Mother in law passed a few years ago and did not know it even existed till recently. Unfortunately I've had to clean out the house and I've come across a few things that I never knew anything about. It's like Christmas every day when I find something new, or in this case, something old.
    Can anyone please tell me what the numbers on the bottom of this mean? Y19146 I do know that they did a series of certain pieces but I can't figure out this number. Any help would be nice in this mystery.
    Thanks y'all.

      There is a lot of information on Caithness Paperweights. Just Google those two words and you'll get all sorts of options. Googling Caithness Paperweight Numbering will explain what your number means, including date and to which series or range it belongs.

      Thank you for your advice. I have googled this and Binged this I even went to several different sites like Replacements.com with no results for anything stating with Y. This is why I came here. I was hoping I would find some help with this mystery frame such a large group of collectors and enthusiasts. Still no word back from the Factory yet either.
