Turquoise and Yellow Art Glass Bottle, Strata by Mdina c. 1970s Malta
About the Item
A tall, sculptural bottle with spherical stopper, handcrafted by Mdina Glass during the mid-1970s. This design, known as Strata—and sometimes referred to as Sea and Sand—was introduced by Italian glassmakers Vincente and Ettore Boffo, who joined the Maltese studio in 1971. Their influence brought a refined Italian sensibility to Mdina’s already distinctive approach to colour and form.
Produced between 1976 and approximately 1978, this example is composed of bright yellow glass layered with fluid accents of turquoise and earthy brown—tones that evoke the vivid terrain and coastal palette of the Mediterranean landscape.
Standing 27 cm high with a diameter of 8.5 cm, the bottle is signed Mdina to the base and remains in very good vintage condition, with no structural damage or restoration.
