zidori:
I am trying to identify this stunning vase with signature. My educated (or otherwise) guess is Mtarfa but do not know the Mtarfs signature. Can anyone help?

Regards

Sure is

zidori:
Thank you, Gareth.
Is this the standard Mtarfa signature or are their a variety depending on the glassblower, like Mdina?

Hi Ronnie

Of those that I have seen this is a fair representative of the Mtarfa signature... although when you look at it you wouldn't think that that is what it says. The other signature for this piece is the design/colour of the vase itself... which I would have attributed to Mtarfa or one of the other Maltese glass makers even if it did not have the added signature


regards

Mtarfa piece I am sure

I have a collection of Mdina, Mtarfa and Phoenician glass - bottles, huge bark vases, faceted pieces, iridized, bowls - some are signed with dates - I would love to post here but I don't fancy posting 100 odd pics -

I sold a large Mdina bark bottle for £100 the other month it is really coming up - the large 'axe head' is another now really sought after shape

I love with all the factories placing them by age through the style and colour way - early 70s up to now (Mdina especially)
