Mdina heavy 'Sea and Sand' art glass bowl, 70s vintage, Michael Harris Malta, teal blue/gold. Mid century retro ashtray/dish/vase, turquoise

An unusual and heavy thick glass Mdina bowl (or large ashtray).
The technique/design was down to Michael Harris in Malta in the late 60s through the 70s. I suspect this is an early example.
The base has a splodges and swirls of a really vivid teal/turquoise blue with a streaks of goldy paint - sea and sand.
All cased in thick clear glass. Natural bubbles and layering. Ocean like, known as Sea and Sand. Different from every angle!
Mouth blown/hand made. Flat clean polished base, see photos. Bottom 2/3 is all coloured, top 1/3 is clear glass.

About 5" wide x 7cm high.
Weighs a chunky 1kg (well a few grams under).

Great condition with hardly any signs of age!
One teeny tiny bite on top rim, so small it's hard to see.

A stunning unusual addition for any Mdina collector and stunning against the sunlight.
