Checking in Glass fact file a-z (Ivo Haanstra) Ivo says that both Val St Lambert and VSL are used as marks, amongst others. Ivo gives an example of the VSL mark, but as JP said about his, it's not like the mark on this piece.

ok, so not a Val St. Lambert, who are other candidates that made crystal like this and signed them?  It seems to be a nice heavy piece of crystal even though it's still an ashtray.  I try to trace the flow of the signature and I not sure it's Val at all , maybe Vol, Vou, Voi, Veu, ...

If not VSL, it looks like Vae to me.

Thanks Cathy, Tried that initially but I'll do some more searches with 'Vae'
