Uranium glass pink pearline flower thorn clock help please.
« on: February 09, 2014, 07:06:38 PM »
Can anyone help me with this please, the base looks like a uranium glass thorn vase, and the flowers are pink and look pearline, it has an old repaired/stapled foot, the clock looks pretty basic although keeps lovely time and the front looks Victorian, it is all glass even the circular fitment which is uranium glass. A crazy looking piece of glass this one.

Not half as elegant as yours but strange too:
clock - origin unknown    ;D

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
