Did the Talcum Powder trick. I can say with confidence that there is no signature anywhere on the piece.
Thanks again for everyone interest.  I'm working on the suggestions and will message any progress.

I quite like some of the Romanian glass with the applied decoration, they seem to have their own unique style. I have a Jon Art satin perfume bottle with non metallic applied decoration. It is very organic…but in an alien sort of way :) The base finish of that is similar to Smitty’s vase.

Well I’m hanging my head with embarrassment!! This morning holding the vase at a certain angle…Low and behold I could see something like a signature. I should never have doubted the experts. Can anyone make something of it . I enclose an image.
In the meantime Im working thro the Romanian thread.

I see Patrick Stern

I'm not entirely sure if that is his signature but that's what it looks like to me.
comparison signature here on this one:

might be the link to the image with the mark. They do look similar to me, but I'm no writing analyst.

Does look likely, the S and t match nicely with this signature:

It can be very hard to spot signatures on anything with a satin finish, throw in white or pale colours to make it even more difficult.

 ;D I found the P and I found the S.
but I didn't think my "analysis" was worth a comment.  :-[

Thanks to everyone who helped me identify my vase. Now I’m trying to find out more about Patrick Stern. On the journey I  did discover Romblast and the world of Romanian glass. There is so much to learn and so little time left.
