Topic: Unusual iridescent and copper glass pot?

[Sue C]

Does anyone know whose work this is? the rim of the pot and the pontil scar are covered in what look's like copper??

Well, I don't know about the coppery bit but the rest of it looks like Phoenician Glass, Malta to me.  I've got a similar vase - I'll go hunt it out and take a photo.

Hi Sue,
it very much reminds me of Phoenician Glass, Malta , Leonard Mulligan, formerly
with Mdina,certainly the shape and the
irridescent glass, the strange copper coating however, i havent seen before.

Hi Andy - but you went one better and have found their website!

Here are my pics anyway.  I'll add them to glassgallery later as well.

I have , in my bathroom, (because its a bit turquoisy and fishy)
the best and nicest piece of Phoenician glass that i have ever seen, I will take a photo
tomorrow, i have been looking for a similar piece for several years but never seen one again!
I have had a couple of xmas drinks tonight, but i may have something to eat, and put it in a new
thread, because i think its quite unusual!
See you later,
Andy
