The Collection 2017 Handcrafted in Scotland


Welcome Since 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.

MEET THE TEAM Martin Murray

Scott Sinclair

Martin 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!

Starting his career at Caithness in 1991 as a glassmakers ‘helper’, Scott progressed to paperweight maker within 12 months. Now after 26 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 Campbell Calum McDougall Calum 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.

Martin 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 McAteer 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 now works with Caithness on a freelance basis to create Lampwork pieces.

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 and also designs for the Caithness range.

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.

Robert 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.

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. In complete contrast, Fraser is now a master at making dainty paperweights and is being trained up by Martin as a cutter.

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.

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

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

24

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

9. Inspecting the paperweight for quality and design

12. A selection of finished weights
