Home All Iridescent Uranium Glass Bell-Shaped Lamp Shade
A tall, bell-shaped glass lamp shade standing upright on its fitter. It is a warm yellowish off-white color, and the rim has been painted a warm brown with a second stripe of brown just below. The glass contains many bubbles, most of which have been stretched during the blowing process, creating visual texture.

An angled view of the shade's fitter, showing the rough hand-ground surface and some more iridescence on the bottom of the shade
The shade standing on its rim, under UV light. The background appears purple from the light, and the shade is fluorescing bright green. The bubbles, which were previously somewhat difficult to see, stand out more as they do not fluoresce.

The fitter under UV light, fluorescing brightly
The rim under UV light, highlighting the bubble texture and showing the way the glass under the painted rim fluoresces where the paint is thin
