I have this wonderful enameled piece of glass by Silvio Salviati.
I looked all over online, but these are the only similar pieces I could find online
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item5644c745bc&item=370521097660&nma=true&pt=Antiques_Decorative_Arts&rt=nc&si=pFSB0%252Fidld20lQw9G9AlmcBCbj8%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc
They were listed, as Salviati glass and Moser enameled.
I do not know much about either and can't find any other examples, so I was wondering if anyone is able to confirm this. Or if you have any other ideas in mind.
I was able to see that Silvio did leave the business in 1920(didn't say by death, like the auction says) and that his father passed in 1890, which is when the siblings took over. So, the timeline seems to be correct.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would agree with the attribution but the enameling would be referred to as tube lined, and identical technique to that used by Moorcroft and extremely difficult to perfect, especially on Glass.
