Nice, that is a 'Verdala ashtray', originally designed by Michael Harris while at Mdina for a commission from the Verdala Hotel in Rabat but later used as a standard production shape at Mdina and IoW.
If yours has a coachbolt pontil mark then 1973, with a flame pontil mark early 74.

OK, it's been a long time coming, I know, but here's a pic of the attenuated bottle standing next to a Whitefriars 5" coffin vase.
