Glass signature

Just wondering if anyone can identify the maker of this bowl. It is fairly clear, but can't think of anything. Looks either Scandinavian of American maybe. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi, would you mind rubbing a little talcum powder over the signature mark with your thumb to bring it out for photographing?
If you haven't any talc, some cornflour or ordinary flour would do, but they can get messy if they get wet.

Also, an image of the whole piece might help. Somebody might recognise the glass, which would make interpreting the mark easier.
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Earth without art is just eh.

Not Lars but this is the signature of the sons of Lars Kjellander, Åke and/or Nils.
