This small, hand-blown glass vase from the Mdina Glassworks in Malta, dating to the 1970s/80s, exemplifies the artistic craftsmanship of its era. Measuring 10 × 9 × 7 cm, the vase features an organically rounded, bulbous body with a short, wide neck and a flat, flared rim, reflecting the aesthetics of mid-century modern and studio glass movements. The dominant cool pink hue is interwoven with lighter pink and white patterns, forming a dynamic, feather-like effect across the surface. A thick, transparent outer layer of glass encases the colored core, enhancing the depth of color and giving the surface a highly reflective, glossy finish. The flat base bears the original Mdina signature, confirming its authenticity. The vase is in very good condition, with no chips, cracks, or visible repairs; all elements remain original and well preserved. The listed price is for one piece. The vase evokes the southern light of Malta, captured in vibrant glass. Its colors and organic lines seem to tell the story of the studio, where every gesture of the glassblower is frozen in the material like a Mediterranean breeze. The semi-translucent tones and dynamic pattern suggest movement—as if the vase records the brief moment of sunrise over the island. This is an object that carries the spirit of handcraft and the experimental energy typical of Mdina Glassworks in the 1970s. The vase can be placed on a light wooden console, marble tabletop, or alongside other transparent glass objects to highlight its depth of color and glossy surface. It works well as a standalone centerpiece on a table or shelf in a mid-century modern, eclectic, or Mediterranean-inspired interior. Pairing it with simple ceramics or
