Vintage Uranium Green Pressed Glass Centrepiece Bowl - Frosted - 26. 5 Cm (10. 5 ")
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:13018583 | Colour: Green |
Type of Glass: Pressed Glass | Original/Reproduction: Vintage Original |
Brand: Unknown | Object Type: Bowl |
This green pressed glass bowl has a frosted surface on the interior and the exterior, and an overturned fluted rim with a band of diamonds underneath. It would have originally had a central flower frog and figurine to make a floral centrepiece bowl. Without these it will make a good fruit or trifle bowl. This bowl contains uranium to make the green colour - see the photographs of it being lit with a UV light. I haven't been able to identify the maker from my usual sources, but it it's ...similar to some of Sowerby's designs.
The bowl is 5 cms (2 inches) tall at the curve of the rim, 26.5 cms (10.5 inches) in diameter across the rim, and holds 1.1 litres (2 pints). It weighs 990 grams before packaging.
The bowl is in very good vintage condition, with no chips or cracks, and some light surface wear, including faint water stains.
My packaging is always careful, and I use a mix of recycled and new materials, so your order should arrive with you in the same condition it leaves me! Orders placed before 14:00 GMT or BST will be despatched the same (or at weekends, the next) business day.
