Advert Description
3 LOVELY GLASS POSY OR ROSE BOWLS WITH METAL FROGS (NO DENTS, BUT AGE RELATED TARNISHING SCATTERED THROUGH
THE BRASS FROG LIDS EXTERNALLY ON THE 2 MOTTLED OR SPLATTER GLASS PIECES AND SLIGHT DAMAGE TO THE BRASS FROG (SMALL SECTIONS MISSING) TO THE LARGE TANGO GLASS POSY BOWL. THEY ALL DATE FROM THE ART DECO PERIOD AND WERE MADE BY ONE OF THE TOP BOHEMIAN MAKERS OF THAT TIME SUCH AS LOETZ , FRANZ WELZ OR KRALIK
BUT NOT SURE WHICH? THE GLASS IS IN PERFECT CONDITION, NO CHIPS SCRATCHES ETC (EXCEPT 2 TINY SLIVERS OF GLASS FROM THE TOP RIM OF THE TANGO GLASS WHERE THE FROG HAS BEEN IN SITU OVER THE YEARS, THOUGH THIS IS TOTALLY COVERED WHEN THE FROG IS IN SITU ANYWAY. THERE ARE OCCASIONAL BUBBLES THROUGHOUT AS OFTEN FOUND WITH HANDMADE GLASS AND THE LARGER TANGO GLASS BOWL HAS PAINT SPECKLES ON IT. THE 2 SMALLER SPLATTER GLASS PIECES
REACT TO BLACK UV LIGHT AND IS EITHER MANGANESE OR MANGANESE CONTENT GLASS WHICH CAN EMIT COLOURS OF ORANGE OR PEACH OR A FAIRLY BRIGHT REDDISH-ORANGE FLOURESCENT COLOUR OR IT COULD BE A CADMIUM GLASS OR HAVE CADMIUM CONTENT WHICH CAUSES A BRIGHTER ORANGE OR YELLOW GLOW OR IT COULD EVEN
CONTAIN SELENIUM OFTEN ASSOCIATED WITH RED GLASS BUT WHICH ALSO CAUSES GLASS TO GLOW ORANGE UNDER UV LIGHT.
ALL OF THESE COLOURS ARE WITHIN THIS GLASS SO IT COULD EVEN BE A COMBINATION OF CONTENTS
:)) THE 2 SMALLER VASES MEASURE 5 AND A HALF INCHES TOP TO BOTTOM INCLUDING THE FROG AND 4 AND A QUARTER INCHES ACROSS WIDEST POINT. THE TANGO GLASS IS 6" TALL INCLUDING FROG AND 6 AND QUARTER " WIDE. THEY LOOK STUNNING TOGETHER,
I'M HAPPY TO POST USING PARCEL FORCE 48 WHICH IS A FULLY TRACKABLE SERVICE FOR PROTECTION TO BOTH PARTIES (I WILL SEND THE TRACKING NUMBER THE DAY I POST IT AND POST IT WITHIN 2 WORKING DAYS OF RECEIPT OF CLEARED FUNDS), AS LONG AS POSTAGE COSTS ARE COVERED BY THE BUYER, BUT I USE RECYCLED PACKING MATERIALS (SAVE THE PLANET AND ALL THAT :D) SO DO NOT CHARGE FOR PACKAGING. I HAVE PAYPAL IF NEEDED
:)
