VTG Manganese Clear Pressed Glass Bowl Floral Vine Starburst Base UV Glow 9.5"
Product Details
This is a beautiful vintage clear pressed glass bowl featuring a lovely embossed floral and vine pattern wrapping around the rim. The base is anchored by a sharp, dramatic multi-point starburst design that beautifully catches the light. The Glowing Secret:While this piece appears as elegant, completely clear glass under normal household lighting, it holds a hidden feature! Due to its historical composition, this bowl contains manganese. When placed under an ultraviolet (UV) blacklight—specifically a 365nm longwave light—it responds with a distinct lime-green fluorescent glow. This makes it a fantastic addition for collectors of UV glow glass, Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG), or Depression-era tableware. (Note: I do not have a proper camera and lighting to capture this globe, but I will guarantee that it does glow.) Measurements: Diameter: Approx. 9.5 inches (9 1/2) Height: Approx. 3 inches Condition: This item is in Good Vintage Condition with some wear consistent with age and previous use. No major structural cracks or large breaks. Features minor surface wear, typical production-era air bubbles, and light scuffing/scratches on the bottom from use over the decades. There are small traces of residual cold paint/finish in a few recessed areas from its original decor (please see close-up photos). Please review all high-resolution photos closely as they form the primary part of the physical description.
