Signed twice on the base but can't decipher them!
Thanks in advance

Looks like M Andrews and Peter Layton. 

Can't recall if Martin Andrews worked at London Glassblowing with Peter Layton, however, could be a good place to start.  :)

He has a website and a bio here: http://www.martinandrewsglass.com/biography.html and yes he worked with Peter Layton - see Leni's post here:http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,17589.msg101824.html#msg101824 (http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,17589.msg101824.html#msg101824)

Ah, yes! It seems so obvious now!!
What does it mean when there are 2 signatures on the one piece?
Did they both make it together or did one advise the other?
