V RARE BLUE HEART BEVELED GLASS BOX CASKET UV GLOW ORMOLU BRASS MOUNT FRENCH VICTORIAN ERA ANTIQUE MANGANESE
GRAND TOUR SOUVENIR TRINKET / JEWEL / RING BOX WATCH HOLDER MONTRE PORTENOTE: THIS sale IS FOR ONE BLUE GLASS BOX. THE OTHER \'CLEAR\' BOX IS SHOWN FOR COLOR REFERENCE ONLY.THIS BEAUTIFUL FRENCH BLUE GLASS HEART BOX MEASURES APPROX. 2 1/2\" BY 2 1/2\".
IF YOU\'RE A FAN OF THESE LOVELY BEVELED GLASS BOXES, AND ENJOY COLLECTING THEM, (LIKE ME), THEN YOU ALREADY KNOW HOW RARE THEY ARE IN COLORED GLASS...CRANBERRY, BLUE, SOMETIMES GREEN, AND IF YOU\'RE VERY LUCKY, YOU MIGHT FIND ONE IN CLEAR-GREENISH URANIUM GLASS...OR, AS IN THIS CASE, BLUE W/ MANGANESE. (THEY\'RE ALSO FOUND IN YELLOW \'SPATTER\' GLASS, BUT THE ONLY EXAMPLES OF THEM I HAVE SEEN ARE LARGER THAN THIS SMALL VERSION, AND I THINK THEY ARE NOT QUITE AS OLD).
FINDING THESE COLORED BOXES IN ANY SHAPE IS GREAT...BUT A HEART SHAPE IS EVEN MORE OF A CHALLENGE.
THIS RARE \'SWEETHEART\' RING / JEWEL BOX, HAS A LITTLE SOMETHING ELSE...IT GLOWS A LOVELY GREEN UNDER UV LIGHTING, DUE TO MANGANESE OXIDES ADDED DURING MANUFACTURE.
I HAVE SEVERAL BLUE GLASS BOXES LIKE THIS...THEY ALL GLOW A BIT UNDER UV, IN A FAINT GREEN, DUE TO MANGANESE OXIDES, BUT THIS ONE IS CONSIDERABLY BRIGHTER THAN THE OTHERS.
FOR COLOR COMPARISON, I\'VE PHOTOGRAPHED IT NEXT TO MY URANIUM GLASS BOX.OF COURSE THE BLUE BOX IS LESS INTENSE IN COLOR, THAN THE URANIUM GLASS BOX, YET STILL FLUORESCES NICELY.
THE GILT BRASS MOUNTS, HINGE AND S-CURVE CLASP ARE PATINATED IN ANTIQUE GOLD.THERE IS A LITTLE WIGGLE IN THE MOUNT, BUT IT IS SECURED.THE INTERIOR SILK IS ORIGINAL AND WORN.
