Topic: colour changing glass

[glasstime]

Could anyone help me identify the signature on this piece of colour-changing glass sculpture?
Many thanks

Hello and welcome. 
Can we see an image of the actual piece, please? Often we can make a better guess at working out somebody's handwriting if we recognise the style and appearance of the glass itself.

Thanks for the welcome and the prompt reply. Unfortunately the piece, which is of two figures, is in bits at the moment - not terminal bits, but needing glue to put it back together, the original glue having failed. When I've done that, I'll be able to take a photo of the whole thing. Any ideas about the correct glue to use would also be gratefully received.

You need specialist glass glue. It's easily found in hardware stores.
Don't buy the very cheap stuff from unknown names, it's useless, you need to spend about £4 on a tube of a well known brand.
You will also need an ultra violet torch, again, not an expensive thing and very useful in the future anyway. (a good one can be found on ebay from the far east for less than £2).
The ultra violet light is needed to set the glue.
It's great that you want to save the glass.

There are now glass glues available that do not need to be cured with UV light, used one the other day on a lamp base and so far so good...

Got the glue, thanks both, and I'm practising on a smaller piece before going on to the actual figurine. Here's a partial photo of half of it - by the time I'd taken a picture it had changed from pink to blueish mauve. I'm hoping it may help someone to recognize the signature.

That is Neodynium glass, it will change between lilac and a greyish blue, depending on whether it is in daylight or fluorescent light (grey in daylight).
The style looks a little familiar, but Murano is not my area.

This reminds me of Sarah Peterson's Dancers Series for Caithness Glass,  but I don't remember them being made in neodymium glass, and the signature has me baffled.
