That's also why loads of early Mdina isn't marked at all and why it is so random whether it is or not. No spare time or staff to do these "finer points" of finishing off, they needed to get stuff put out on the shop shelves, it sold so quickly.

It is a lovely contrast. It looks as if it might be quite a big beast too!
I need to add an image of that very lovely and unusual pale Mdina Cylinder vase with the grid pattern in pale silver you found for me, to my list of things-Boffo needing photographed. ::)
(I've not forgotten, Patrick, I've just been a bit overwhelmed recently.)
