"I thumbed through that (antique French paperweight article) and compared the pieces of junk and rubbish with which I had been so proudly familiar for the last seven years. I showed it to the craftsmen, and they, as all craftsmen do, said 'We can do as well as that, ' and I said "Do it.'"
-Perthshire Paperweight's founder Stuart Drysdale, The Art of the Paperweight-Perthshire
