Art deco uranium - blue jug with enamel flowers.
Definition.
This uranium colored jug was made in the early 20th century.
The jug is made of mouth-blown blue glass with a crystal content, to obtain a more beautiful shine.
The jug is very sleek of design and is finished with enamel flowers.
To obtain a beautiful bright blue color, a particle of uranium was added.
By applying this uranium to the glass, the carafe gives a fluorescent green color when you shine UV light on it.
Glass and crystal with uranium were only allowed to be used until 1930.
Given its age, a small trace of wear may be present, as well as glass threads, air bubbles and imperfections are completely normal for handmade antique glassware.
