Emerald City Art Deco Powder Jar

Emerald City Art Deco Powder Jar
 
 
This magical piece is a confection of soft, ethereal green, looking as if it were spun from solidified mist and moonbeams!
 
The distinctive, vibrant, and slightly matte mint-green hue is "Satin Finished" or "Frosted" Vaseline/Uranium Glass. This effect isn't naturally satin; it's achieved by acid-etching the surface of the uranium-infused glass, giving it that lovely, soft, glowing texture.
 
The real magic is its fluorescence! If you shine a UV (black) light on it, the small amount of uranium oxide in the glass will make it burst into an intense, unmistakable neon-green or yellow-green glow. It's like holding a jar of captured fairy light!The Lid is domed with a central, pointed finial, often called a "Spire" or "Pinnacle"—a little glass hat that tops the whole affair with a flourish. The Body is a rounded bowl, with a subtly molded foot detail that lifts it gracefully. This piece is a beautiful powder jar or trinket box, perfectly sized for the vanity of a 1930s glamour maven to hold her face powder or precious little jewels. This piece is most likely from glass maker powerhouse Bagley. Made in England.
 
There is some tiny flee bites on the under side of the lid, and tiny surface scratches. There are so small they wouldn't photograph. The piece is in beautiful condition :)
 
 
All items are in vintage and antique preloved condition. Some minor surface scratches may be present.  I do my best to note and photograph any wear.  Please contact me with any further questions :)
