Paperweights, Gifts & Artglass Collection 2015

WelcomeSince 1961 Caithness Glass has established a proud tradition of fine glass-making. At our original site in the far north of Scotland we

initially produced coloured vases and bowls in contemporary, popular styles.

The following year saw the introduction of the first Caithness Glass limited edition paperweights, ‘The Planets Set’, designed by Colin

Terris. These ground breaking abstract creations, and others that followed, succeeded in thrusting Caithness Glass to the forefront

of modern paperweight design.

Today we maintain our position as a world leader in the design and production of collectable glass paperweights and gifts. Each

and every piece is a unique work of art, designed by our talented designers and individually hand-crafted to the highest possible

standards by our skilled makers in the Crieff factory.

Calum McDougallCalum started his career in 1977 with Perthshire

paperweights who specialised in millefiori and

lampwork designs. In 2002 he joined Caithness

Glass (following the closure of Perthshire),

where he has continued to create designs

using the methods that he had mastered, and

has also fostered new skills and techniques for

making Caithness products.

Scott SinclairStarting his career at Caithness in 1991 as a glassmakers

‘helper’, Scott progressed to paperweight maker within 12

months. Now after 22 years, Scott has one of the highest

levels of skills and knowledge of glass at Caithness.

Following the move to Crieff, Scott has also taken charge

of the furnaces used in melting the glass for production –

a skill in itself.

Martin MurrayMartin has over 30 years experience as a glass

cutter and engraver. As a native Irishman his early

training was at Galway Crystal. After moving to

the UK in 1974 to work at the Kings Lynn factory,

Martin moved to the Caithness Glass site in 1992.

Martin has used his skills and creativity to enhance

the collection with a variety of cuts and faceted

finishes. Proud recipients of his work include

several members of the British Royal family! Martin CampbellMartin started work at the Caithness Oban factory in 1976 and later relocated to the main Perth factory where his considerable glassmaking skills and knowledge were put to good use. He has continued to create the highly intricate Caithness designs and is now also a master with the technique of sandcasting.

Robert McAteerRobert spent a year learning the basics before being

promoted on to the maker’s bench where he made his

first paperweight “Mooncrystal”. Not only can Robert

make paperweights but he is also a master at making the

more sculptural pieces that Caithness produce including

large multi-colour bowls, sculptural fish and figurines.

Dean Gill

Dean is already proving to be a valued member of the

team. He has been taken under the wing of Martin Murray

who will teach him everything there is to know about

cutting and polishing glass. He will have a long way to go

to reach the skill level of Martin but if he keeps going the

way he is, who knows, it may be sooner than we think!

Dean is a local lad, not living too far from the factory.

Debbie Addley

Debbie started work at Caithness in 2008. Her main

responsibilities are making sure the paperweights are

correctly packed and sent out to customers. Debbie is

known as the night fairy as her hours of work are when we

have all finished for the day. She packs away all the days

production readying the space for the next days work.

Ian Mailer

First started with Caithness in February 2002. His

first job with Caithness was paperweight assistant.

This was followed by paperweight maker and sand

caster - preparing the colour moulds for the cast

glass to be poured into. Ian has worked within most

of the production departments in Caithness Glass -

he is a master of all trades!

Fraser Munro

Fraser first started in the Caithness factory in 1999 when

he was 16 years old, fresh faced from secondary school.

He worked as a helper then a paperweight maker. He

proved to be excellent at making the animals that were in

the range at that time, and specialised in making the large

elephants - these were very large and difficult to control

but Fraser made it look easy.

Allan Scott

Allan began as an apprentice Lampworker for

Perthshire Paperweights in 1975. He left to help John

Deacons form Jay glass in 1979. He joined Caithness

Glass in 1983 and set up the Lampwork department

where he designed and made Lampwork for almost

25 years. He is now back working with Caithness to

create Lampwork paperweights.

Peter McDougall

Peter started his career at Strathearn Glass in 1967.

One year later Stuart Drysdale was starting a factory

exclusively devoted to Paperweights. Peter was asked

to join them and was to remain with the company until

its closure in 2002 attaining the position of Manager

and Head Craftsman. Peter started his own studio and

continued to make his own Paperweights. He closed

his studio in 2012 and now makes Paperweights from

the Caithness Factory in Crieff.

Helen MacDonald

Helen was born and brought up in Caithness, and after

training as a glass engraver soon became one of our

most prolific designers. Helen’s designs are frequently

abstract and very expressive, and she works closely

with the glassmakers, devising new techniques and

effects to realise her ideas. Helen was delighted to

return to the team after an absence of several years.

Duncan Smith

We welcome Duncan Smith to the team this year. He

was the head lamp worker for the famous Perthshire

Paperweights in Crieff for 23 years. Since opening his

own studio in Perth in 2002, he creates his own unique

form of glass art. His three dimensional wildlife sculptures

are one-off pieces that can never be recreated. He now

brings a touch of his magic to Caithness.

Alison Horrocks

Alison has been with the business for about two

years and her duties are anything to do with the

office; production, admin support, main point of contact

for ordering requests and emails, costing’s of new

weights and anything else Scott or the other guys come

up with! Her job is never boring or repetitive!

Jacqueline McGraw

Jacqueline’s main duties are quality Control on all

manufactured weight’s and she ensures that all 1st quality

weights are passed before they are shipped. After 2

years with the company she still feels the buzz and

excitement of new challenges and in keeping Martin and

Dean on their toes!

Roses are shining in Picardy, In the hush of the silver dew, Roses are flow’ring in Picardy, But there’s never a rose like you!

A sacrifice we can never repay but will always remember

In Flanders fields the poppies blow,Between the crosses, row on row,That mark our place; and in the skyThe larks, still bravely singing, fly.

Lest we forget and at the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them

HOW A PAPERWEIGHT IS MADE

1. Blocking the glass into shape using a hardwood block

2. Cutting bubbles and other imperfections out of the glass

3. Palleting the glass with a graphite pad to shape

4. Reheating the glass in the glory hole at 800°C turns the chilled hard glass back into molten glass

5. Picking up powder glass colour 6. Cutting the glass in with tools to make it easier to knock the finished paperweight off the iron

7. Separating the paperweight from the metal iron

8. Placing the paperweight into the annealing kiln where it takes up to 15 hours for it to cool down

9. Inspecting the paperweight for quality and design

10. Grinding the base of the weight on the rough and smooth diamond wheels to remove the excess glass where the paperweight joined the iron

11. Polishing the base on a cork wheel which makes the base clear and shiny once again

12. A selection of finished weights
