This piece has been attributed to Beyermann & Co, Haida, Bohemia.
There seems to be very little information on Beyermann & Co out there. I have found other examples of glass attributed to them on the internet but that is all. If you have any information on Beyermann I would appreciate it if you would share it.
Thanks.

Mac, there's a snippet here translated from Czech (courtesy of Google Translate):
Company Beyermann & Co.. Haid was founded in the year 1865 and was active until *30 let 20 century. The first production consisted mainly of commercial glass. After 1930, the glass factory output has focused on creating free. Only a small proportion of the goods has been signed.
* This seems to mean 1930
Original text:
Firma Beyermann & Co. vznikla v Haidě v r. 1865 a byla činná do 30. let 20. stol. Její produkce zpočátku ponejvíce sestávala z užitkového skla. Po r. 1930 se produkce sklárny zaměřila na volnou tvorbu. Jen malá část zboží byla signována.

Apparently the privately owned Archiv Werner Kittel holds information on Beyermann if anyone has the means to contact them:
