A distinctive vintage Mdina Glass vase, handmade in Malta and engraved Mdina to the polished base.
This unusual compact vase has a clear glass body surrounded by thick, free-flowing turquoise and deep blue applied trails. The layered strapping forms a sculptural, almost square outline around the rounded body, giving the piece a bold appearance from every angle.
The clear flared neck contrasts beautifully with the richly coloured exterior trails, making this an eye-catching example of Maltese studio glass.
