Default Who made this object?

Dear everybody,

I recently bought a wonderful Italian glass wall lighting object. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about it. It reminds me of works by Angelo Brotto, but the signature (on a very small glass button) looks like MF or MC to me - so maybe it is Carlo Moretti?
Any info would be much appreciated! Thanks a lot in advance.

The same logo/initials are on the fazzoletto two threads above this. Amazing that they appear at the same time.Less surprising is the fact that I don't who made either piece. Very nice piece of lighting, though.

Between the holidays and being sick for a week, I havent really been on the forums, but this is very interesting, I can't say that I have ever seen the MF logo embossed anywhere else either.
