This is another attractive piece of vintage Phoenician Glass in my store.
It takes the form of a small bowl. It has an etched signature to the base, as photographed. It dates to the late 1980s or early 1990s.
It is in excellent damage-free condition. There are a couple of air bubbles on the base which have occurred in the making, again as photographed.
The Phoenician Glass Company was founded on Manoel Island, Malta in the 1980s. The founder was Leonard Sullivan - who was a former worker at the celebrated Mdina Glass factory. Many of the pieces from this date are very similar to designs made by Michael Harris. Phoenician Glass was named after the ancient civilization that colonized Malta during the 1st Millenium BC.
It is an attractive bowl that is covered with shiny dark purple thick ribbon-like trails and purple and green lusters like peacock wings or that you might find on Tiffany glass. I hope that my images have done this piece justice.
The bowl measures 3 1/4 inches in diameter by 2 3/4 inches in height.
It will cost £4.95 to post to UK addresses and this will be with Royal Mail Tracked and applied at checkout.
