This is an attractive 1970s Mdina paperweight.
It is a more unusual one in that it is an exceptionally large size. It has an engraved signature to the base: Mdina.
It has a lovely striped pattern with patches of ochre yellow dots and diagonal streaks - set in a bright turquoise blue glass body - like the sand and the sea and taken from colours found in the Maltese landscape.
Dimensions: Height is 3 3/4 inches. And the diameter at the widest point is 4 1/2 inches. Yowzah! The weight unpacked: 1.9kg. It is in excellent condition, with no damages.
Probably an item for the more specialist Mdina glass collector.
