Description from the seller

[EN] Large Art Glass Perfume Bottle / Decanter - Mdina Glass Malta - 1998 (Model FF15 "Tiger / Tortoiseshell")

Suberb and substantial decorative heavy blown art glass bottle, crafted by the famous Maltese studio Mdina Glass.

This piece features high-quality craftsmanship, blending dynamic amber and orange swirls with organic midnight blue and black inclusions on the sides (the iconic "Tiger / Tortoiseshell" decor). The pattern is encased within a thick, heavy layer of clear glass (sommerso technique), creating a beautiful three-dimensional depth and magnification effect.

The bottle comes complete with its original and fully intact ball/mushroom stopper, which features a twisted vibrant orange glass core.

* **Origin:** Malta (Mdina Glass)
* **Year:** 1998
* **Model / Silhouette:** FF15
* **Signature:** Hand-signed with a diamond point under the base: "Mdina FF15 1998"
* **Total Height (including stopper):** 31.5 cm
* **Maximum Width:** Approx. 11 cm
* **Condition:** Excellent condition. No chips, cracks, or repairs on either the body or the stopper's stem. The signature marks on the base are perfectly clear. A choice piece for collectors of 20th-century European art glass.
