nice little iridescent piece, but the home craft glue decoration is gruesome. Have you tried if it comes off without damaging the fab surface underneath?

I believe it is Bohemian... I have seen similar pieces before and will post info if I can find an attribution source as to a specific company.... I looked quickly and could not remember where I have seen it.... 

I have also seen similar enamel work on green pieces also...  Possibly by one house, and decorated by another....  a relatively common practice of the day....
