That is a piece of Austrian glass in the shape of Austria by Steirisches.

Thanks Ross, I have seen a couple of glass maps from Scandi companies, but didn't recognise your Austrian one. I don't think I have any Austrian glass.....but it has made me think.....is Bleikristall Austrian?.....off to find out!!
Gary:
Hi Ross (IMHO) I don't believe the plate is a Monart piece. Monart did not do that shape with an inverted lip, though Vasart and Strathearn did.

Ross, that is the part of Austria I am coming from! :D
It isn't the shape of Austria, but that of Styria in the South-East of Austria (easily recognizable by the piggy shape ;D), "Steiermark" in German, so "Steirisches Glas" means Styrian glass.
Never heard of that maker, but Oberglas Bärnbach is in Styria...

Thank you for all opur contributions.
Gary - I started a topic http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php?topic=47412.new;topicseen#new and lo and behold it is actually early Mdina - 1970 - 1972 I am told. A most pleasant surprise as it was simply a 'like it' buy on Ebay.
Michael - I am fascinated that I now know someone from that area. I will be Googloing to find out more.
