Title: Cranberry basket with uranium glass rim and handle
Post by: SNJ on May 27, 2018, 05:04:26 PM

Is this large basket likely to be British or Bohemian (or somewhere else), please? The uranium part fluoresces under UV but not expecially strongly.

I would say it was probably a Kralik basket. Definitely Bohemian IMO

Many thanks Christine. A quick online search shows a couple of baskets with a similar rim and sinuous handle credited to Kralik. Always best to be a bit wary of online attributions but at least Bohemian seems pretty solid.
