Description: We are delighted to offer this beautiful hand blown glass bottle designed for Mdina by Master Artist Michael Harris, circa 1960s. This lovely piece features a square form with soft corners and a bold round stopper. It is laced with chocolate and amber abstract design. Gently used, there may be a production flaw as it looks like a blemish under the glass on one shoulder. It does not rise to the surface and can’t be felt. It is shown in the last photo. The bottle measures approximately 8.5” high (to the top of the lid) x 3.5” diameter. It is signed "MDINA" on the base. Micheal Harris (1933-1994) was a lecturer in industrial glass design at the Royal College of Art. He subsequently founded the Mdina Glass Manufacturer on the Island of Malta in Italy in the 1960s. We appreciate your careful review of the photos as they tell so much more than we can articulate; and ask that you zoom in for a closer look at any and all condition issues. We welcome questions and encourage you to ask before reaching a buying decision. Fixed rate shipping applies to US buyers only. As always, we thank you for taking a moment to consider this piece.
