Looks quite Mdina-ish to me!  The base looks very like my Mdina bowl, http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/albums/userpics/10048/normal_Mdina_bowl_base.jpg which also looks to be a similar size and shape. You really want Sue (Chopin-Liszt) to come along and tell you yea or nay, but I think she's currently on a plane flying South for the National! :D

I agree - it looks Mdina alright - I'll have a nosy through Mark Hill's book (after I've sorted out din-dins) and see if it, or anything similar, is in there.

It's a Mdina Chinese Key bowl.
Wonderful, highly desirable, fabulous, early, very likely Michael Harris, drool.......
