Hi---thanks for the info. I was hoping you were going to say that you'd spotted a flame or coachbolt!!
It seems as though then,it's either early Maltese ( Mtarfa or possibly Phoenecian) or Alum Bay.
Thanks again for all your help.
Regards Scott

I'm very familiar with both marks. Sorry, neither is on this piece.
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Earth without art is just eh.

It could of course just an studio piece; so much glass isn't marked (and numerous studios have been and gone or still exist) and this isn't a special shape or design. I don't think we have  any evidence to really point at Malta

Hi--I agree, for the reasons you've given, it would be unreasonable to expect to be able to identify every piece of glass.
