And I've been known to refer to my charity shop Versace jeans (prob fake) as Visocchi jeans. Visocchi is an Ice cream parlour here!

These lovely weights are Mtarfa, quite early Mtarfa. I love this colourway, and have a nice small collection of it - it took me quite a while to identify it as Mtarfa - I don't think they marked many pieces that early on.

I reckon there is a lot of very nice Mtarfa, and Phoenecian. Two glassmaking Studios which are really part of Harris "dynasty" glass, who are as yet, seriously under-rated.
