Hiya all

I am new to this board even though I have been collecting paperweights for years.  I have just been digging some of my collection out of boxes and have come across a faceted millefiori paperweight that I can not find any information on.  It is small, faceted with cut star on the base.  It has 5 flower rounds of predominantly green canes with a flower round of predominantly blue canes in the middle and a central F cane.  I am totally confused as I can find no information on F canes, only the usual P canes or thistle canes or JD canes. 

Is there any lovely people out there that can please help me as to who made this paperweight?

Thanking you in advance  :)

Perthshire "PP14" - the "F" indicates 1974 as year of manufacture.

Thank you so so much  :)  This has made me realise that despite collecting paperweights for most of my life (over 35 years) I know very little about them.

Thanks you again!
