Sizist! :P
I believe this is actually a Harris design (in the glass, it's called Tortoiseshell when it's Mdina - not to be confused with Tortoiseshell as produced at IoWSG, which is a spiral of brown streaky glass in a frothy yellow background) and was produced in the period he was still there as well as afterwards. This may be a later '70s shape - I simply don't know.
I have as evidence for this, an early cylinder vase produced at IoWSG which is very similar to this - and it is common knowledge that MH continued with and developed the designs he produced at Mdina when he moved to set up IoWSG. It's got a flame pontil mark - and is almost identical to another cylinder vase I have, marked Mdina.
