PAIRPOINT CONTROLLED BUBBLE TAZZA, GREEN URANIUM

Sign In to see what this sold for

For anyone who knows Pairpoint, the clear glass controlled bubble connector separating colored glass is a sure sign that this is a Pairpoint piece! This glass is difficult to find, as it was high end glass when it was made, and the time period it was made was during the Great Depression, so there was limited demand for expensive glass. As such, not a lot was made and less survives. This tazza (shallow compote) is Pairpoint's glowing green color, due to uranium salts used in the glass formula. Yes, It glows under a blacklight!
