It is a set of three art glass pieces purchased in Boothbay Harbor, ME circa 2005.

Hi eutamias21, welcome to the Board.

Could you please add the additional images (or at least, one of the signature) to the Board. This would be useful for future reference here in case the photo host site loses the images.

Absolutely stunning! They look to be in the façon de Venise style, which goes way back to the 16th century, but I guess these are a modern take on this style, given that they are signed in the way they are. I had a look through a book on the Cinzano Glass Collection, which has a lot of Venetian stemware, and there are numerous pieces with a similar look. The signature is indecipherable to me.
