If the seat is too high push the seatpost further down, if it's too long and bottoming our then cut a bit off the bottom

That's a 25mm diameter seatpost. The only manufacturers I know of that still offer that diameter are WR Compositi in Italy (custom-made carbon, several setbacks available) and Thomson (only straight, zero setback).

If you are interested I have an old, 2003-vintage Campagnolo Athena seatpost in polished alloy with that diameter.
