Topic: Uranium Glass (Identification Help)

[maddiew1122]

Hello! I came into possession of this amber-colored candy dish. It glows with a black light as well. I posted it on a uranium glass group on Facebook and someone said it could be from late 1800s England. I was hoping I can find more information on this piece.

Here is the picture of it with the black light.

I think it could actually be American, if you haven't already done so you could try the EAPGS website here:

To save you looking it's not on the EAPGS site.

Hi and welcome. I was assuming it is cut rather than pressed? It has some similarities with this one that is from Silesia (apparently a region in Poland, Germany and Czech Republic) from around 1840.
