Topic: Glass dishes, signed with applied spots id help please

[Roobarb]

Hello, each of these pieces are signed but I've not been able to ID. Any ideas much appreciated.

Slumped and fused glass can be so tricky to id, plenty of people out there having a go, it requires much less equipment compared to blowing glass. Could that be a character in Japanese?

Is it a stylised bee/wasp?  Two antenna to the top left followed by head, wings and striped body.

It's a stylised frog.  There's a cartoon figure I've seen just like it.

Thank you all. Ah yes, I was trying to make out letters but think you're right Nevb, it's a bee / wasp!
