Extraordinary Art Deco Era Depression green glass bowl c1930s

Please read all of the description below before sending a question, as you will find I may have already answered it for you...especially in relation to postage costs! Local and International postage rates in description below.

Just when you think you’ve seen pretty much all the various green glass patterns around- this truly unusual piece turns up! How to describe the unusual asymmetrical base to this wide flared rim centerpiece or serving platter? Just well- unusual I guess! And indeed very striking. The bowl graduates seamlessly from a square base into a round rim and has a decidedly Art Deco era sensibility. The bowl glows under UV light due to its uranium oxide content- whilst to avoid disappointment I would add its NOT the brightest glowing glass piece I have handled.

Condition is excellent- lots of nice base ware due to genuine age- but no chipping or cracks at all. No makers marks- probably English ca 1930s
