Good evening. I'm new to this forum, so I hope I'm requesting information in the correct stream.
I have recently purchase a delightful vase which has a signature. For the life of me I cannot interpret the signature so I thought it prudent to ask whether you fine folk can perhaps identify. My pics don't do the vase justice, but I took them with my phone.
Thank you for any help you can offer.

Welcome to the message board Beege, Glass is the right section for this request.
Unfortunately I do not recognise the signature either but someone else probably will. If you could add the height of the vase and a photo of the base they would both be useful in making this topic a reference for the future.

Thank you for the welcome John...most kind.
The vase is 30cm tall and very heavy.
I have added two more pics: there are no obvious markings on the base.
Kind regards
Jack

John and bOBA, thank you so much: I would never have worked that out without your help. Much appreciate.
I shall look at the work of MIHAI TOPESCU with interest.
Kind regards

For another example of Mihai Topescu's signature - with "Mihai" in full, see my post in a paperweight thread: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,20895.msg118108.html#msg118108

Thank you Kevin: they are really interesting examples of the signatures. I'm beginning to get a 'feel' for how difficult signatures can be to interpret. Thank you for the information.
