Description from the seller

Magnificent set of 7 wine glasses made from genuine uranium glass (ouraline) dating from the first half of the 20th century.

The glasses feature an elegant yellow-green tint characteristic of uranium glass that glows bright green under ultraviolet light, a property typical of uranium-containing glass. This property is shown in the photographs.

Each glass is adorned with a delicate acid-engraved design depicting stylized botanical motifs, typical of the Art Deco period.

Features:

* Set of 7 identical glasses
* Uranium glass (ouraline)
* Acid-engraved decoration
* Era: circa 1920-1940
* Probable origin: Central Europe (Bohemia/Germany)
* Height: about 15 cm
* Opening diameter: about 7 cm

Condition:
Very good overall condition. No cracks observed. The photographs are an integral part of the description and also illustrate the fluorescence under UV light.

The glasses will be carefully packed for secure shipment.
