Title: Cut Glass Amber Uranium Glass Possibly Bohemian Floral Pattern for Show
Post by: mhgcgolfclub on July 12, 2017, 07:59:16 PM

I found this very nice amber uranium cut glass bowl yesterday in a floral pattern. I bought it from an inside seller. From inside it gave no indication that it was uranium, but I thought looking at the colour it may be.
It was not until I took it back to the car and had a look that it turned from amber to a green depending on the light angle.

I am still researching but I think Bohemian likely and date to around the early 1900's although it could be earlier.
I had thought maybe English but think that is unlikely.

It's lovely. It's also very brown; English amber uranium is much less brown, even the darkest. I think I might go with Czech/Bohemian too
