    Can anyone tell me who the artist was of this piece?
    It looks like M. ZW or ZM?
    It also has Fire Island & 026950 etched on the other edges
    Thanks!

    Journey, I think that may be an MLB, not MZ, and it would be for MATHEW LABARBERA of Fire Island Glass, in business 1981-2007 in Austin, TX.

    If you look online (or just on eBay) for him, you'll find more.

    Here's a brief article about his studio's closing:

    Here's a nice piece:
