These are Strathearn's Medium to Small Sea Urchin paperweights. Strathearn only described these weights as "rough texture sea urchin appearance". They have twenty vertical rows of Scottish Sand over an internal colored Cushion. Colors stated as only Red and Green but I've also found them in Orange, Blue and White. Sizes range from under 2.5" for the Small ones to over 2.5" for the Medium ones. Yearly production is unknown at this time. Circa for the time being 1965 to 1979.
