Doyen - Drinking set (8) - Uranium glass - wine glasses

This beautiful set of 8 glasses is made of uranium glass, a particularly distinctive type of glass notable for its soft yellow-green glow and unique appearance. Glasses made by the Belgian glass factory Doyen, early 20th century. The uranium glass emits under UV light a characteristic fluorescent light-green color, which makes these glasses not only functional but also very decorative. The glasses have a classic goblet shape with a sturdy foot. They are perfectly suited for serving wine or other beverages, but also look wonderful as a collectible object or a showpiece in a display cabinet. This set is a special example of glassware from a period in which aesthetics and craft went hand in hand, and will surely appeal to both antique glass enthusiasts and uranium glass collectors. All 8 glasses in good condition. A microchip at the rim of two glasses, noted in the photos. The dimensions: height 15 cm, top diameter 7.5 cm, foot diameter 6.5 cm. Weight per piece 105 g. Everything is well packed.
