Description from the seller

An exceptional Art Nouveau uranium crystal vase, standing an impressive 30 cm tall, crafted in high-quality cut crystal and mounted on its original silvered base.

The vase displays refined hand-cut decoration, including a radiant starburst motif and an elegant scalloped rim, typical of early 20th century Bohemian craftsmanship. Under UV light, the crystal emits a vivid green fluorescence, confirming uranium content.

Attributed to Bohemia (Central Europe), circa 1900–1930.

Condition: very good, with no cracks or chips observed. The silvered base shows minor age-related wear, consistent with its period.

A rare and highly decorative collector’s piece, distinguished by its size, clarity, and striking UV glow.
