Vintage Murano Style Green Uranium Glass Vase

This item is a vintage Murano-style green uranium glass vase. The vase has an organic, almost free-form shape with a ruffled or undulating rim. The body of the vase is a deep, somewhat iridescent blue-purple under normal light, with a distinct bright green color that fluoresces vibrantly under UV light. The green color is concentrated along the rim and also appears within the body of the glass. The base is a solidified pedestal-like structure tapering from the body. The glass appears thick, suggesting a hand-blown or hand-formed process. The overall condition is unclear from the image regarding chips or cracks, but the glass appears clear and bright suggesting relatively good condition. The style is consistent with mid-20th century Murano glass or pieces inspired by the Murano technique. The presence of uranium indicates production likely between the late 19th century and the mid-20th century, though it was sometimes used after that period. This piece is notable for its color-changing properties under UV light.
