Vtg Uranium Plates (5) csbh

Illuminate your collection with this captivating set of five vintage uranium glass plates! Each plate measures approximately 5 inches in width and showcases a distinctive "Optic Swirl" or "Twisted Optic" pattern, a hallmark of elegant Depression-era glassware.

Crafted with a touch of uranium, these plates possess a magical secret: when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light, they erupt in a mesmerizing, vibrant neon green glow. This striking fluorescence is the definitive characteristic of true uranium glass, making these pieces a dazzling display under a black light.

While these plates do not bear a manufacturer's mark, this is a common trait for mass-produced Depression-era glass, and it does not diminish their charm or collectibility. The "Twisted Optic" pattern is often associated with renowned manufacturers like Imperial Glass-Ohio, dating these beauties to the late 1920s or early 1930s.

These plates are in good vintage condition, ready to bring a unique historical glow to your home. Minor imperfections, such as subtle "straw marks" or slight "mold deterioration," are typical for glass of this age and are a testament to their authentic vintage craftsmanship. Rest assured, uranium glass is considered harmless for display, emitting only negligible levels of radioactivity.  

Whether you're a seasoned uranium glass collector, a lover of Depression-era treasures, or simply seeking a unique and eye-catching decor piece, this set of five glowing green plates is a must-have.
