That was made by St. John's Crystal, Isle of Man, and I was outbid on eBay for one of them!!!

The top line of the signature, reminded me of "Zanetti", I think it reads "Zane Murano" maybe??

Luca Zane?

It really is a very nice ellie....not a quickly produced piece at all...good hot working with lots of attention to detail.....I mean it has tusks and not many ellies are made with tusks,  and I have got a few ellies!!
If it is Zane, then I will want to find out more about that maker....
C'mon Dan, you owe me big time!!
Chris....they were tears of laughter....you crease me up!

Zane Murano is right. Maybe Alex will be along soon to input a little on the glassmaker. I don't know a lot about him.

BTW, if you would like to see your ellie in the zoo, he is most welcome. I just need to make sure Luca is the correct Zane before putting it in there. You know how the last names in Murano can be.
