while the enamel on the glass is nicely painted, I have serious reservations about it being mont joye, moser, or le gras. the glass style and decoration is quite different from these 3 makers, and is not of the same caliber.

Thankyou for your reply i did have a thought inside that it might be a bit of a less quality maker more of a tourist type piece than a real gem, Do you think it might be royo? Thankyou dan

Definitely not Royo which is always in neo Mudejar style, not floral. I would not exclude Legras who produced a whole range of qualities. Or Czech, of course.
