A striking sculptural Mdina art glass vase in the sought‑after turquoise, brown and amber “Tiger” colourway, featuring a heavy clear base and flowing internal movement. The form is one of Mdina’s classic sculptural shapes, with a rounded body rising into a narrower neck, showcasing the studio’s signature interplay of colour, density and light.
Although unsigned, the attribution is confident - the vase displays all the hallmarks of authentic Mdina production from the 1970s; weighty construction, layered colour bands, mottled brown neck, and the distinctive turquoise‑to‑amber transitions associated with the “Tiger” palette. At 1.3 kg, it has the satisfying heft and presence collectors expect from mid‑period Mdina pieces.
A bold, atmospheric example of Maltese studio glass, perfect for collectors or for interiors needing a sculptural, light‑responsive accent.
