Anita, you might have something there, the 1st letter could be an elaborate Z, and maybe what looks like U is an N.

Hmmm, we always want more signatures, but why can't they be nice simple clear ones  :chky:

I see Alex has some of his glass, maybe he will stop by and have a look

The main trouble I was having was converting the last letter to an "e." It looks so much like an "s" to me.

Here is a thread on another group that has a similar signature. I re-read the thread and Zane was suggested, but no conclusion was drawn.http://www.fossilfly.com/Forums/showthread.php?t=2879&highlight=Zane

that is very similar,

I have found site selling a Luca Zane swan and is specified it was signed Luca Zane.
Presuming our beloved artist's keep the signature the same with all there pieces, maybe this 1 isn't a Zane.
I know all sorts do the signatures after production.  :thud:

Love the vase. The first pic is great. The bottom reminds me of a shot of earth from space. Some great colours to it. Can't help with the signature though. I am hopeless at reading cursive. I wish they would stop teaching people to write that way!

Saw another piece by Luca Zane and it has fantastic colours so maybe that is who made it.
Clean and Crisp a Murano twist.
Archimede tops my list.

Dear Martin,

This one is too small to read the name..

Thank's
