The listing, Uranium Glass Saucer Georgian Aka Lovebirds 1930s Depression Glass has ended.
Hello! Up for grabs is this vintage uranium glass saucer. This saucer is from the pattern series know as Georgian, also known as Love Birds. It was produced between 1931 and 1936 by Federal Glass Co from Columbus, Ohio. Uranium glass was produced pre 1945 by many companies who created Depression glassware as a cheap home commodity for struggling families. The only way to easily identify true uranium glass is by shining a black light on the piece to see if it glows. The only modification I did to the "glow" pic was a purple reduction filter to eliminate the black lights color. Uranium glass has been deemed unfit to eat off of by the FDA but is not dangerous to touch or have in your possession! I have an extensive collection so if this auction goes well I may start popping up more pieces. This plate measures 6" in diameter. There is an area near the center which looks like it is cracked but it is actually a ripple in the glass from production. Thanks for looking!
