Please help ID the glass artist who made this huge glass sculpture, there is a signature near to the base but I cannot read it clearly.

The item would have been made in 2 pieces, height approx 20" and weighs between 25/30kg.

The piece is at least 15 yearss old and I am sure it must have been made by a top glass artist

Thanks Roy

Lucky, lucky man!

Wow! It looks like a glass version of the Moai statues on Easter Island...

That is wonderful - quite stunning.  No idea of glass artist but first name looks to me like Rowland, I've never seen anything so Gaudier-Brzeska like in glass, Easter Islands and Italian Futurists rolled into one. Thanks steph.

If you have a look at the sig on the 4th picture of this Loredano Rosin piece, it looks like a good fit to me....
