ABOUT PRODUCTID 32060
The Phoenician Glass bowl/container from Malta exemplifies late 20th-century studio glass, dating from the 1980s and 1990s. Crafted from deep, glossy black glass, the vessel is distinguished by an intense iridescent sheen that shifts from purple to gold, green, and blue depending on the angle of light. Flowing, organic patterns reminiscent of peacock feathers or marbled swirls animate the surface, with colors blending seamlessly into one another. The bowl features a simple, cylindrical silhouette with thick walls and a rounded base—typical of minimalist yet decorative glass design from this era. The glass is smooth to the touch and finished to a high gloss. Authenticity and origin are confirmed by a Phoenician Glass Malta sticker and a hand-engraved signature. The piece shows no visible signs of wear, damage, or restoration—retaining an excellent, collector's condition. This object tells a story of Mediterranean light and 1980s experimentation: its glass reflects the vivid hues of Malta’s southern coast, while the iridescent pattern evokes an evening sky over the island. The simple form serves as a stage for a spectacle of color—depending on the light and angle, the vessel appears either as a deep black or a kaleidoscope of shimmering reflections. The bowl seems to whisper, "Every glance reveals a new story of color and movement hidden within the glass." In interior arrangements, the Phoenician Glass bowl can serve as a focal point in a modern composition: it is best displayed on a light, matte surface or a natural wood shelf, where its iridescent reflections can freely interact with the light. It can be paired with other art glass pieces or minimalist ceramics, creating a collector’s display with a late-20th-century spirit. The bowl fits seamlessly into ascetic, modernist spaces as well
