RE ; Help neede to ID a 50-70's? Paperweight.

Hello, be gentle, my first paperweight posting.
I found this amoungst my mothers estate, I'm totally guessing from the style a 50-70's paperweight. Its a reddy/amber colour rather than straight amber, very plain. Can anyone help me with ideas or reference points.
Thank you all so much
Simon

Hi Simon, sorry I can't help with an ID, but it would be useful if you could provide sizes (height and diameter).
