It's quite like the Onion / Minaret shape, but with a flange on top.

I'd say it is an unusual shape, it's probably from the mid-later '70s - '80s.
It's quite right, it is Mdina, but it's also what my Dad would have called stink-puff.

I wonder would somebody explain how the GMB operates please? As id of thought somene giving a donation is as good way to help it operate as any it must require a lot of time from the owners of the site to keep it running properly.. Id be more than happy to pay a sub yearly or via pay-pal now and then to help it stay the great place it is today i too love glass in every shape and form but i would never have been able to aquire several examples if id of paid what they are worth in money terms so in essence i would more than likely not of been able to enjoy this fantastic hobby to the level i do today. As i dont have bags of money to buy RRP prices...Ive aways felt that this is a great board of information and experts in the field of glass.
