    Default Caithness Glass?

    Does anyone know where I can buy Caithness glass items now?

    I'm looking for a couple of vases, or something like that, so I can have them engraved.

    Thanks in advance for any replies!

    Thanks guys - I'll have a look in Riverside Replicas. They are gifts, so I need to buy them brand new with the original boxes if I can.

    Perth factory has been closed and the site is being turned into smaller retail units of the touristy kind.

    Visitor centre has moved to Crieff and you can have items sent direct and perfectly packaged.

    Good luck with your quest.

    Thanks everyone.

    I've had a look at the Caithness Glass website, and I could order something from there. I'll have a look in Riverside Replicas on Saturday, and if I can't find anything there, I'll order direct from the site.

    Asked the guy at the burger van a couple of months ago what was happening. The factory used to be a handy toilet stop on our travels and they did a good breakfast in the cafe.
