AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Antique uranium glass vase – circa 1870 – Art Nouveau / Belle Époque

Very rare model dating from around 1870, in the period of the Belle Époque and early Art Nouveau influences. This elegant uranium glass vase is rendered in a soft lemon to pale yellow tint with refined floral relief accents around the middle and subtle vertical lines along the body. The gracefully flaring neck and harmonious proportions give the piece a distinctive, timeless character.

In daylight the glass shows its silky lemon-yellow glow; under UV light the vase glows intensely green, characteristic of authentic uranium glass. This contrast makes the object a striking focal point in any collection or interior, both by day and under blacklight.
