Description

Vintage Mdina Malta Glass Art Glass Paperweight Bird Figure Signed. This is an absolutely beautiful art glass bird made with great skill. It does have one tiny little chip on the beak that I didn't even notice. If you look at other birds from Mdina you will see that it is a small chip as the birds are not large. The only way I noticed it was when I got it under the photo lights and really looked. It's not sharp at all. This is a signed piece and is an otherwise great condition with no other chips, scratches or dings that I can find. I have looked this over extensively. The circles you see are not white, they are from the overhead ring lights used to make it bright enough to see the bird. 5"H x 4¼" with tail feathers 1 lb 6 oz Note: Used condition. Please examine all of the pictures closely, as they are part of the description. When buying pre-owned or vintage items, please expect some aging, wear and minor imperfections. All items are sold as-is. Shipping: Cost varies based on weight and location. I do my very best to package items with extra care and I do sometimes use recycled shipping when appropriate. Items are shipped within 1 business day of receiving payment. I determine the best means of shipment to your location and that is usually through USPS Priority Mail. I will occasionally use standard USPS ground to save on shipping for items under 11 oz (with packaging) and $10. This will be noted in the shipping description on the item page. Questions: Please feel free to contact me with any questions before placing your Bid or By It Now. I try to be at responsive as I can. I will also try to accommodate special requests if you are sending this as a gift. I can put a little card with a note in with your gift. Please just send me a message and let me know beforehand! About me: I graduated with a Bachelor's in Interior Design in '97. I worked in the field for 20 years successfully until having twins with medical issues. This necessitated my transition to a different kind of work and staying home with them. Recently, I have reignited my passion for design with my (mostly) vintage and antiques eBay business. I'm very small but I get to handle all aspects and make sure my customers are happy. I find it very fulfilling to find hidden treasures for others to enjoy! In a strange way it keeps me in touch with my design roots and helps make a little money to participate in paying bills for my family. Thank you so much for looking and for your purchase, I do really appreciate you!
