Blue flashed pink glass - Powder Bowl

(1/2) > >>

Max:
Not sure who made this pretty powder bowl.  Wondering if it's Czech or whether (which I was hoping for...when I bought it) if it's Stevens & Williams.  The cutting isn't top quality, but the pale blue and pink glass are unusual. 

Any ideas anyone please?

Lustrousstone:
Humour me and try you UV light on it.  ;)

Max:
Thank you, but it's not a great reaction for uranium Christine. The knop on the top of the lid, where the pink glass is thickest gives a dullish yellow glow...as if there's a small uranium content perhaps?  :-\

Lustrousstone:
No, not uranium, that's manganese. it's just that at the last glass fair there was a huge blue cut to pink bowl where the pink was uranium!

Max:
Dang!  That would have been very cool indeed!   :cry:
