AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Superb and authentic Ouraline candy dish, late 19th century. It is amber opalescent in color. It stands on a pedestal with a fountain represented by three dolphins bearing the bowl. It glows fluorescent green under light, proving that it is Ouraline. It is in superb condition, with no cracks or chips. Ideal for Art Nouveau decor on a refined table for a gîte, restaurant, loft, office, kitchen, tearoom, or for a caterer or confectioner.
------
Ouraline is a glass in which uranium has been incorporated, most often in the form of diuranate. The uranium content generally ranges from 0.1 to 2% of the total weight of the object, but some 19th-century pieces contain up to 25%.
