On ebay I have found:

Whitefriars Paperweight

"A lovely concentric millefiori setup with six rings of canes, set in a tall cylinder.
Monk 1975" signature / date cane.Mint condition.
Dia: 2.6" (6,5cm), Height: 2.35" (5,9cm), 585gr."

Dia, height and weight are less than usual.
Is it "re-polished" or "re-cutted"?

Hi Lothar

It is original. This is a standard design, but one of the less common versions.

Alan.
