Uranium glass compote

Vintage turquoise pressed glass compote. • A piece full of charm and character, it caught our eye last week with its superb translucent turquoise blue that immediately catches the light. 💡 • This footed compote is made of pressed glass and features a lovely relief decoration composed of floral patterns, wavy lines, and a delicately scalloped edge. • Its elegant shape allows it to easily find its place at the centre of a table, to present some fruits or sweets, but also simply on a console or a shelf as a decorative object. A beautiful piece to bring a touch of colour and poetry to a vintage interior. • Its uniqueness: the glass reacts to UV light, revealing a beautiful fluorescence characteristic of glass containing uranium, a detail particularly appreciated by enthusiasts and collectors of fluorescent glass. • One can easily imagine this bowl in the middle of a table, surrounded by a few vintage finds, where its deep blue becomes almost luminous at dusk… and under UV light, it reveals a completely different personality. An original, decorative piece full of charm, that will find its place both in a collection and in a contemporary interior. Diameter of the bowl 19cm. Diameter of the base 9cm. Height 11cm. Weight 540g.
