This glass vase is a design by Michael Harris for Mdina Glass, produced in Malta during the 1970s. It is the well-known 'Ming' model, characterized by its bulbous shape and distinctive texture bearing the designer's signature.
The object is crafted from mouth-blown glass and displays a layered color scheme in earthy tones, ranging from ochre yellow to brown. The technique involves embedded air bubbles and a mottled pattern that gives depth and character to the material. The base features the engraved signature 'Mdina', confirming the authenticity of the piece.
The vase is in excellent vintage condition, with the original luster and structural integrity fully preserved. The glassware displays the natural variations inherent in the artisanal production process.
This collectible fits perfectly into a Mid-Century Modern interior or serves as a striking accent in a contemporary setting. The warm tones and organic design make it a versatile addition to a sideboard or open cabinet.
When shipped, the item is carefully packed to prevent damage. I ship in recycled and eco-friendly boxes.
