Late 19th Century Moser Glasses Help with Pattern Name & Signature

 :) I think the same, Nev.
I have been under the impression that if a signature is written in gilt, it is normally the gilder who wrote it.
I don't know why the enamellers didn't, or even if they didn't. Perhaps because the gilding was the final treatment?

APEXantiques:
Many thanks to all who responded. Your information is invaluable.

I'm inclined to agree, it's the same with English china; the gilder often marked the base, even if the painter didn't as gilding was the last process applied.
