Help please to ID the signature on this paperweight.
It is signed on base but very difficult to get a clear picture even with talc as it seems to blend with the pattern in the PW.
It looks like an O with a squiggle then possibly Martin Studio 1993 and then what looks like a N
Thanks for any help

There's Martin Evans of Glory Art Glass on the Isle of Wight, this doesn't look too inconsistent with his work. Might be somewhere to start anyway, Roy. :)

Thanks Sue I will have a look .

A few better pictures.
Thanks Roy
-
:) Much better, but not helping me any.
The other thing that this is suggesting to me, from the colours and the kind of way they're put together, is perhaps something associated with Kerry and IoWSG.
Need to find an image to show you.

When I was searching on Google that I found a few glasses that look very similar from Kerry. I've found them on etsy, but I haven't found the one posted here.

Thanks for your help.

I read O Martin Studio or O Mantun studio 1993
Not sure that helps.

Hi Robert, welcome to the Board. Could you please provide a link or two showing similar looking items that you have found.

Maytum Studio?
-
Brian Maytum, Colorado.
I think you are completely correct, Christine.
-
Thank you Christine for the ID of the paperweight . That was quite a difficult one I think.
Thanks Roy
-
;) Thanks for giving me an excuse for taking you on a wild goose chase, Roy.

Maytum Studio is not necessarily Brian Maytum apparently
-
:-[
-
It is connected with him but Maytum Studio stuff is not necessarily made by him
-
I know. I'd gone overenthusiastic again, hence the embarrassment about misleading. Again.

I would expect that last letter - N - I suspect, belongs to the actual artist. I have 4 Maytum studio items. One a perfume base is simply signed "Brian Maytum". I also have a lovely tall oil lamp similarly signed - both have a copyright symbol. Two others, paperweights, are signed "Maytum Studio Rudin" which means they are either designed by Sarah Rudin or she actually made them. These also have a copyright sumbol.
Unfortunately there does not seem to be much data about the Maytum Studio.
Here are a paperweight and the perfume base of mine.
