Oh dear.  Yet again my ability to read scrawly signatures is very much put to the test and found wanting.

This is a very lovely little paperweight, for some reason I thought it might be American?  I can't read the signature at all.  Because of the background, it is very difficult to even see it on the photo, so I also blew it up and outlined the signature in blue, in case it helped. 

It didn't for me, but might for someone more experienced.

Here we are:

Thanks!

Firstly, I know almost zero about paperweights, but it does bear a passing resemblance to Peter Layton's landscape series.  I don't know how he finishes off paperweights and could be wildly wrong!   :)
