Fiddling around with contrast etc. I can see clearly it says miller - I can see the dot above the "i".

Is the siganture on a brass (?) collar? And is the upper part of the foot metal or glass?

The signature may only apply to the metal part(s) - assuming I am correct in my thinking. The glass parts could have been made "anonomously" and the whole item constructed by the retailing company.
