Hi, I'm wondering if anyone here can help me determine if this signature is a Murano glass maker or something else. The glass has all the characteristics of Murano Glass and I found a few leaf dishes on the Great-Glass library pages that looked similar but I just can't determine what this signature says and have been fruitless in my searching of google and elsewhere.
It measures 5 1/2" long and 4" wide, a really deep deep greenish black topped with Gold Aventurine and cased in clear glass.
The Signature looks to me like Gambervoll or Sambervoll but there's a bit in the center that I might not be reading right.
Please help I'm so at my wit's end on this one lol.
TIA
Cat

I think the piece is inscribed as a wedding gift maybe?
I dont think its a Murano signature, but it looks like an Archimede Seguso piece.
He did a lot of this little leaf pieces.

Thankyou so much for that suggestion, I hadn't even considered that the signature might be post production.
I agree that It looks like a segusio piece so I will list with these suggestions. Thankyou again.
