AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This beautiful perfume bottle is a rare collectible, made from uranium glass that glows under UV light. The design is executed in a striking geometric Art Deco style, with a sleek faceted pattern that gives the glass extra depth and sparkle.
The bottle features a striking bright green color with a slight yellow tint, typical of uranium glass. Uranium glass was especially popular in the first half of the 20th century and is nowadays beloved by collectors for its unique appearance and its characteristic fluorescence under UV light. Where this perfume bottle was made exactly is not known, but glassworks such as Val Saint Lambert, Scailmont, Doyen and Baccarat also used uranium in their creations.
The bottle is in very good condition as can be seen in the photos.
Dimensions: H 16.5 cm x W 7 cm
