This listing is for an Antique French Sea Green Opaline Vaseline / Uranium Glass Vase, with Gilt Hand Painted decoration. It is made of a beautiful antique sea green french vaseline or uranium glass- the photos really don't do this gentle color justice.
In addition to the common orangy glow in sunlight, it also glows EXTREMELY bright under a blacklight. It is not marked by any maker. It is an excellent collectors item, holiday gift, decor or display piece, and more! The piece is highly detailed, with a beautiful design hand painted around it, featuring a grecian style pattern (popularized after the grand tour era) along with some dot patterns. The rim is in exceptional shape for its age, showing no damage at all.
It is in excellent condition. I have found no chips cracks or any other damage on it at all. It does have small makers flaw, on the underside curve, which is not visible when the vase is upright - see photos. In addition to a strong glow under blacklight, it also has that beautiful fiery orangey glow when backlit by natural light, the desirable look many call the "ring of fire". The hand painted detailing does have some wear, as is common, but has no large missing portions, which is more common. Thank you for your consideration, reasonable offers always considered. This is a perfect piece for collectors, decor, gifting, and more. It is a must have item for those who like to display and show off their collections. Comes as is, please see photos for details & measurements.
