The iconic geometric Cubist pattern combined with the distinctive yellow-green glow under blacklight makes this one of the most sought-after pieces in depression glass collecting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Is Special\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUranium glass is extraordinarily rare and commands premium prices among collectors worldwide. When exposed to UV light, this bowl glows a brilliant fluorescent green – a mesmerizing effect caused by the trace amounts of uranium oxide in the glass formula. Beyond its scientific intrigue, the bold Cubist pattern with its geometric facets and angular design is quintessential Art Deco. Use it as a stunning serving bowl for special occasions, display it as a museum-quality collectible, or showcase it under blacklight for dramatic effect. This is a conversation piece that combines art, history, and science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Jeanette Glass Company in Pennsylvania between 1929-33, the Cubist pattern (also called \"Cube\") represents the pinnacle of Art Deco geometric design. Jeanette was one of the few American glassmakers to produce uranium glass during this brief window before uranium was restricted for wartime use in the 1940s. Today, authentic uranium depression glass is highly prized by collectors, with prices steadily increasing as pieces become harder to find. The combination of the Cubist pattern in uranium glass is particularly rare and desirable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExcellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, or restoration. The geometric facets are crisp and sharp, and the glass retains its distinctive yellow-green uranium colour. Some light surface marks consistent with age and gentle use – these are barely visible and don't detract from the overall beauty or collectibility. The uranium glow is strong and vibrant under UV light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: 23.5cm\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 6cm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 865g\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Uranium Glass Safety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVintage uranium glass is safe to own and display. The trace amounts of uranium used are minimal and emit negligible radiation – less than you'd receive from natural background sources. It's perfectly safe to handle and display, though we recommend using it decoratively rather than for food service, as with all vintage glassware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHand wash only in warm soapy water – never use a dishwasher as temperature fluctuations can cause stress fractures in vintage glass. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could dull the geometric facets. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Store in a stable location away from edges. To see the uranium glow, use a UV blacklight torch (available from most hardware stores).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a rare collector's piece.
