Austrian Art Nouveau Centerpiece

Hi,
It is marked for Vienna .800 silver with the Dianakopf, oddly, there is no maker's mark anywhere on the piece. As the decoration is distinctive, thought there might be a chance of an attribution by design. Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks, Tom
ps. about 11 inches across.

are you sure that there are no marks? Look carefully - once I had a french bon boniere it took me several hours before I finally found makers mark - hidden in the ornamentation.

Oh yes, couldn't believe it had no MM, spent a couple of hours louping it, don't think I missed a millimeter.
