Mdina Ming Pattern Globe Vase
« on: September 01, 2016, 04:50:15 PM »


Hi, I found this last weekend ( with a bottle decanter ) - now of course I'm trying to establish when it might have been made!

It's unsigned
Quite heavy- just over 2.5 kg
About 15 cms ( 6" ) high

Any thoughts :)

Scott

Sometime between the mid-70s and into the '80s. :)

Hi, thanks Sue  :)

Unfortunately I've also posted under ' British Glass ' - I must have been thinking I of W glass - the shape looks very similar to some of their's - presumably because of the Michael Harris connection - I hope I haven't complicated things too much !

I've asked a moderator to move it, don't worry.
I've started up a small fund to save their neverending patience with me, for when it finally runs out. ;)

Hi, thanks  :)
My very first image was of a mountain in Glencoe !
I'd been trying out a re-sizing app using a photo and in error pressed 'Post' instead of 'Preview'
It was removed with such good grace  :)
