Description from the seller
Exceptionally large and homogeneous set of 14 identical Art Deco liqueur/aperitif glasses in top condition.
Manufactured in Belgium (attributed to Verreries Doyen / Val Saint Lambert) during the Interbellum (circa 1920-1930).
This is a spectacular find for collectors of uranium glass / annagreen / Ouraline: in daylight elegantly clear, but under UV light (blacklight) the glasses glow an intensely bright neon green.
The glasses are mouth-blown in a classic gondola model and feature a refined vertical optical ribbed pattern in the bowl, which creates a beautiful refraction of light. The six-sided faceted stem is elegantly interrupted by a pressed knop just below the bowl. The minimal weight difference (between 41 and 44 grams) and the differences (in mm) in sizes attest to pure artisanal craftsmanship.
Specifications:
* Quantity: 14 pieces (completely identical)
* Dimensions: Height: 9.5 cm | Diameter at rim: 5.0 cm
* Weight: 41 – 44 grams per piece
* Material: Art Deco uranium glass / Ouraline (UV reactive)
* Condition: Absolute display-case condition. No chips, no cracks and no limescale.
Delivery: Extremely careful, shock-resistant, and insured shipping. Pickup also possible.
