ABOUT PRODUCTID 3817
This uranium glass tea caddy from the early 20th century exemplifies collectible Art Nouveau craftsmanship, made in Central Europe, most likely Poland. The vessel features a cylindrical form with a slightly flared base (height 17 cm, diameter 8 cm), topped with a domed lid that echoes the spiral ribbed motif of the body. The uranium glass is distinguished by its clarity and an intense, translucent uranium green hue with a subtle yellowish undertone. Spiraled profiling and hand-ground, polished edges lend the piece a dynamic rhythm and tactile surface, characteristic of Art Nouveau decorative language. The glass surface is glossy, almost wet-looking, enhancing the material's luminous quality. The caddy is preserved in excellent condition, without damage or signs of wear. This piece resonates with the voice of Art Nouveau—an era when nature inspired objects with organic lines and flowing rhythms. The uranium green glass, which glows with a fluorescent aura under UV light, reflects a fascination with modernity and material beauty. The swirling ribs, as if lifted by a gentle breeze, transform the vessel from a mere container into a reminder of morning teas amid floral motifs and the soft light of early 20th-century interiors. The tea caddy can be displayed atop a console in a living room, alongside a collection of glass vessels or on a shelf with antique ceramics, where its uranium green will add gentle contrast to matte textures. It fits seamlessly into Art Nouveau-inspired arrangements or eclectic collector spaces, especially when paired with metallic accents and organic forms. It is worth combining with a UV lamp to reveal its fluorescent effect, or placing it against a minimal background to highlight the nobility of the glass.
