I feel so lucky I´ve been able to get this one from ebay... :)
The colour combination of a deep amber with uranium has surely been used
by other companies, too, but how common is it for ZBS?
Anyone come across further examples?
The label dates it post 1992.
~13cm tall

Nice find! First piece of ZBS I've seen with uranium! 8)

Nice :mrgreen: I've never seen it
-
Oh, lovely... and surprising! Dirk, may I see it glow, please? :)
-
Thank you all!
Sorry, my camera´s not so good at taking UV pics... :-\

Thank you for showing the glow :) -- I find it very surprising that uranium would be used in a post 1992 ZBS piece, especially in this relatively common style of vase. Had it not had a label, I don't think anyone would have suggested "Made in the Czech Republic".
I think it's a really great find, Dirk!
