No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

The blue and white one (I think it is white anyway) would be the same colours as your fish on a pedestal Anne.

I raise your two Mtarfa's with a Valetta: http://blog.peterlupinski.com/?tag=valletta-glass

No idea! It's not my area of interest at all, I only knew about the two JIPs I mentioned above as I'd just moved the topics from Glass into Malta whilst doing a bit of housekeeping on the board. Even the Mtarfa fish isn't really my thing, I just thought it was worth picking up as a reference being signed. :)

I think that John, supported by Roberta, has cracked this.
The mark on the base quite easily reads Valetta, once you're looking for it.

They are always much easier to read once you know what they are supposed to be!  ;)
