Featured any idea if this is valuable?

dear all

opalescent fluted vase looks like venetian? maybe victorian? but couldn't really find anything exactly the same. these fluted vases (or comes in a bunch like a bouquet) were very popular during the british penang era.
6 1/2" tall, rim widest 4 1/2", base 3"
no mark anywhere.
please help with date and maker identification?

Very pretty! I'm not a "glassie", but a bottom's pic will help those who know
I suspect the green glass is UV reactive and will glow under black light...

 

See this one:

thank you kyratango!

 

When searching try using the term rigaree to describe the applied glass bits.

 

tq! learning something new everyday

 

19th C, if I saw it here, I'd say made in Stourbridge.

 

thanks! do you think the british glass foundation would be able to help confirm stourbridge?

 

I would be looking at Stevens and Williams glass from England

Oh and I would say this is Vaseline glass.

 

Just realized you are looking for a date
Time period late 1800s

 

tq! will definitely email the british glass foundation later today.

 

This is a similar vase I sold this year. I never could pin down the maker but it's Victorian with opalescent cranberry and green vaseline glass with spiraling rigaree. The nearest I could come to an ID was 'maybe' Stephen & Williams.

Good luck with yours!

 

beautiful piece! i have emailed british glass foundation, so let's see if they will be able to identify the maker. fingers crossed

 

Please be sure to come back and tell us.

BGF are a great bunch, well worth contacting.

 

Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as "green Vaseline Glass". Vaseline Glass is yellow, the color of old Vaseline Petroleum Jelly. If it's green and it glows it is green uranium glass

 

Hi Marie,
You got part of it right. Old Vaseline petroleum was a greenish yellow. Not yellow like today's vaseline. I forget when the color change took place. I think it was the 60s but not sure.

You're correct.
I didn't see how green it was. These are usually like what jakatch posted and glow green. Just assumed it was the lighting.
My mistake. Sorry.

 

Would the glass color be described as Rubena Verde, with the combination of pink and green?
