I saw that one Mike,  and did think of adding it to this thread,  but thought the signature did indeed need a lot of artistic licence....  I am still on the lookout JaynLone...


Added... we crossed in the airwaves, m!!  Well done,  what a find... certainly worth Jayne signing in to find out what it sold for!!  Wow!

Wow !! Ha!! You could knock me down with a  feather ....it is a bird !

I have come across different styles of Livio Seguso signature so that  would need to be checked out but I think different people signed the pieces -  I think the sculpture is right and it's Livio Seguso.
But would need a Murano specialist to affirm.

added - for example this signature is one that is different to the op's

unfortunately I can't find it on the site link .  It will need to be confirmed that it is his piece.

Yes, that's a good one m, and so Ross was right about it being a bird.... What a satisfying thread this has been and all so interesting as well

Great detective work! The GMB must be THE best resource for glass information IN THE WORLD :-)
