Entirely random. :thup:

But it's NOT signed - it's MARKED - with the Mdina name.  >:D
Signed would be with an artist's name.

One thing that I found handy when trying to determine how old or new a Mdina vase is, is check their own website e-shop at http://mdinaglass.net/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=SFNT&Store_Code=MG. It's very handy, as they give the current shape and heights of all items available per pattern. And knowing what the new price is never hurts...

chopin-liszt:
Hmmm, some interesting name changes!

Michael Harris colourway designs still in production are the crizzle effect -(now called "Blue crystal"), Earthtones, (now called "Earth"), the one now called "Crystal blue stripe", which doesn't have a Harris name to my knowledge;
Dobson's Tiger is now called "Marble", and.....

Said's own chevron pattern is called "Blue Roman".

David, I can't help pin down the age for you, but if you're interested in value estimates, I've seen two of these in the past year or so, both signed Mdina; one was for sale for $150, and the other for $165.  Both sold.


chopin-liszt:
That seems rather high to me, I suppose it depends where you saw them!
It does depend a lot on how attractively the pattern is executed, this is a nice one, and probably reasonably early. It's quite different to the current style where the background is much paler, almost frothy rather than bubbly, and the brown/red strappy bits are thinner and seem loopy-er.
