Hi everyone,
What looks like a pretty standard spatter glass bowl turns out to light up under UV.
It appears to be the white spots which glow, a colour I've not come across before that has Uranium, in fact it's colours don't really hint at it at all.
It's 10cm high and 10cm at its widest.

Pretty!! I love it when things react to UV unexpectedly.... Very nice find!!
Love your last photo and the bowl too!It's so exciting when a simmingly simple item displays its hidden quality.
Looks like Murano Art Glass Vase, Made in Italy by Maestri Vetrai Azzurra. ..is just my guess...
Yes, I had some nice surprises when I got my first UV light, as quite a few white vases in my collection glowed green. I also found that certain opaque white glass buttons & beads (mostly Czech 1920s - 30s era) glow as well.
To me this vase looks more Czech than Murano...
Hi Craig, me too :) and this was totally unexpected. I didn't even consider checking it. I found out by accident while using the light for something else and this lit up in the background.
Hi Ivonne, thank you. I thought it was nice but just another bowl and almost didn't get it, but very glad I did now :)
Hi Findings, I hadn't considered it could be Italian. The wear to the base suggest it has some age.
Hi IronLace, Thank you. This is the first white uranium glass I've come across. I would've guessed Czech too. The cut rim I thought was a guide to it being Czech. To my eye it has that look, very similar to Welz and other Czech glass I have.
I would certainly agree that it looks like Czech production. Great piece!!
spectacular love it fran
all the very best malkey

Hi MALKEY, Great to hear from you! I hope you're keeping well. Thank you. What I thought was a nice but fairly mundane buy turned out to be magical.
