Description :

This stunning and rare Art Deco-era centerpiece bowl features the classic “Poppy” design by Verlys, a company that produced art glass in France and the United States from the 1920s to the 1960s. The design showcases a detailed, high-relief floral pattern of poppies and leaves in frosted glass, contrasting with the smooth, polished interior. The bowl is slightly elevated on a three-toed base, ingeniously crafted from three of the poppies in the design.
Signature: This piece is signed "Verlys" with a diamond-tipped pen on the underside, a common practice for American-made Verlys glass from the 1930s to 1951. This signature style indicates the item is a first-quality piece.
Condition: This signed piece is in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks. There are some minor scuffs and scratches consistent with its age and use.
Special Feature: A key characteristic for collectors is that this piece glows a vivid green under ultraviolet (UV) light, indicating the presence of uranium oxide in the glass. This fluorescence makes it a desirable piece for collectors of uranium or "Vaseline" glass.
Dimensions: Approximately 13.5 inches in diameter and 2.75 inches high.

Dimensions : 14 in L x 3 in H
