AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This beautiful set of six glasses is made from uranium glass, a special type of glass that stands out for its soft yellow-green glow and unique appearance. Under UV light, the uranium glass exhibits a characteristic fluorescent light green color, making these glasses not only functional but also highly decorative. Each glass features finely cut motifs skillfully applied, creating an elegant sparkle and refined details when light hits them. The glasses have a classic goblet shape with a sturdy foot and slender stem, making them comfortable to hold and radiating timeless charm. They are perfect for serving liqueur, dessert wine, or other beverages, but also look stunning as collectibles or eye-catchers in a display cabinet. This set is a remarkable example of glassware from a period when aesthetics and craftsmanship went hand in hand, and will surely appeal to both antique glass enthusiasts and uranium glass collectors. One glass shows a small chip at the foot. Air bubbles are typically part of the manufacturing process.
Dimensions: H 12.5 cm x W 6.5 cm
Will be safely packaged for shipping and sent with insurance and track and trace. Photos are part of the description.
