Description
A faceted uranium glass paperweight of domed form featuring several circular concave polished lenses to the exterior. The glass exhibits a yellow-green hue in natural light and a bright neon-green fluorescence under ultraviolet light. The interior contains a central opaque white floral or leaf motif inclusion, created using a moulded sulphide-style technique. The faceted surfaces and concave lenses create multiple internal reflections of the central motif. The base is flat and polished. No maker marks, labels, or signatures are present on the glass.
Diameter: 8.5 cm.
Condition report:
The paperweight is in good condition with clear polished facets. There are minor surface scuffs and light scratches to the exterior lenses and the base consistent with age and use (photos 1 and 2). The internal floral inclusion is intact with no visible cracking or degradation.
