I've searched and searched for this, I'm sure I've seen it somewhere before, but I just have not been able to find it anywhere - searching M's and W's although I think it is an M.
Help needed please.  Bought in the UK so possibly a UK maker?  possibly more contemporary as the vase is quite 'modern'.
It's quite big at 16.8cm wide (6 5/8") by 17.2 cm high (6 6/8")
and weighs 2.3kg
thanks in advance.

I saw something in a charity shop with the same mark last week. I left it because the design looked a bit too 'now' for me. The actual monogram looks quite modern too.

Maybe I'll be kicking myself after a few others have posted?

Hi m,  we had this mark as a question a few weeks ago and I thought it had been resolved??  Was it you or another person?  
If it was another person,  will they please come forward with an answer for m??

PS  Wasn't it decided it was a stylised N for Nachtmann?????

Rosie, I thought I'd seen it posted somewhere as well!  But I've searched and searched and didn't make a note of it and now of course, I cannot find it again.

Ivo I think that was the name that came up before!
I will search the board and see if the mark matches.
thanks

another thread here with the Marc Aurel mark on which is different.
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,46350.msg260268.html#msg260268
I'm not entirely sure it is meant to be read from the other way up (the discussion on the link Rosie gave) but I'll have a good look round now and see if I can match it.
Thanks so much!
