Murano Owl

[jcf123]

I am trying to obtain some information on the artist of this figurine which I purchased in Murano this year from Mazzucato International.
I was informed by the vendor that artist was Pino Signoretto but the signature on the bottom of glass is different and does not match Signoretto.
Does anyone know this artist's signature or who it is?
This was quite an expensive piece and I believe it to be original.
Many thanks

I checked the Mazzuccato designers at http://www.lineamazzuccato.it/default3.htm and wonder if the name might be Mario Badioli. Your owl does look more like his work on the site than it looks like Signoretto. Hope this helps some.

Thank you very much for your reply and the link to the webb site for Mazzucato. It probably is the work of Mario Badioli although on the Mazzucato webb pages it seems most of his work relates to Picasso pieces and modern art.
If anyone has seen this signature and can verify it, I would be much appreciated.

This piece is definetely from Badiali, I work a lot with him, I know his signature.
Signoretto is far more expensive than Badioli.
