This is absolutely gorgeous under the blacklight.Made in the 1880s this is a beauty that has stood the test of time.One of my fav pieces.Picked this up at another fav shop for $12.I think I did alright.

It's beautiful!
Thanks dishhappy !
You did well. The OMN of this pattern is simply "Leaf" and the pattern really represents grape leaves (finials are bunches of grapes), but somehow over the years collectors began calling this "Maple Leaf" Just one of those glass collecting curiosities.
I knew the original name was leaf.I didn't know they were grape leaves.Thanks Paul.
Thanks alienmagnet !!

Thanks scandi BELLIN van and packrat !!
You have the prettiest things that glow :)
Beautiful color:)
I have a piece that looks SO much like this, but I think I have a reproduction. Mine is a light yellow without the blacklight and doesn't look as football-shaped as yours. Mine is a little more narrow. Mine glows nicely, but I think I got skunked and have a reproduction rather than an 1880s Gillinder. Yours is beautiful, though! Great find. Anyone know who else made reproductions of this pattern? I would like to know what I have.
@vintagegardener: you may have a somewhat similar pattern made by Jeannette Glass called 'Lombardi'. You should add pics in a new post for us to see...
Thanks, I looked at that pattern, but it's not that. I don't know how to post pictures to this site (just signed up, sorry!). Mine looks like this but the leaves are closer together, and I can tell my glass is thinner and the feet have mold ridges, like a "T" you can feel. Probably made last month in ? Got it on ebay. Was trying to copy the image from my "win" site, but again, at a loss. I DO appreciate your naming a similar pattern for me to check out. Thanks!
if it's recent auction, you could post a link here by copy-paste and we may be able to ID
