No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection.

Thanks John, never thought to Google 'Free Form' as a producer, just assumed that it was a description of the shape or decoration!

Thanks very much, everyone. It came with some other Maltese pieces so the attribution makes sense. Even knowing that it's Valetta doesn't make the signature any clearer but it is actually a very attractive piece in the flesh.

Just throwing the net wide Sue! Would think Valetta too, seen a few of their bits in these colours over the last couple of years.

That is really a bit special.
Dartington Glass, for Dartington Hall and with a Frank Thrower signature.
But it doesn't look that easy to sup beer from that wide rim. You'll need a straw. ;D

Think the designer could be Thomas Graham Jackson, nice and hard to find.

I can kind of read Valletta more into the mark than Mtarfa.  ;D
I would not have thought Phoenician.

Not just 5, but 5 all in different positions.
I'm beginning to suspect this is something rather special and unusual, even for an unusual genre. 8)

Could be Valetta or Mtarfa, pretty sure it is from one of the glass makers on Malta, Phoenecian is another possibility.

Sue is more than likely right.

Free Form Studio Glass looks like it is in Weymouth, think the name would read S (Stuart) Wiltshire.
