Description

c1880 Mt Washington Uranium Glass Burmese pitcher and tumbler. Both guaranteed<br>authentic c1880's Mt washington no damage or issues. Pitcher 4.25" tall, tumbler<br>3.75" tall and wide. Selling both for one price.<br><br>Designed by Frederick Shirley and made by the Mount Washington Glass Company,<br>this single layer glass achieved a delicate coloration of pink or salmon shading<br>to yellow by the addition of uranium oxide and gold to the original glass batch.<br>This created a yellow opaque glass which on reheating turned to a salmon color<br>shading into the yellow. Further reheating turned the salmon color back to<br>yellow. The uranium in the glass causes the vase to fluoresce brightly when<br>exposed to black light. Burmese glass is highly collected and is also included<br>in all major American Art Glass collections. This glass is rare today as it was<br>very expensive to manufacture and was only made for a short period of time.
