Green Depression Uranium Glass Handled Cake Plate in the Tendril Pattern
Sold for: $20
Description
This green pressed glass handled cake plate is crafted in the Tendril pattern, which is attributed to the U.S. Glass Company.

The decorative program consists of a central stylized flower with narrow petals radiating from a stippled center, surrounded by an inner ring of embossed rays. The outer rim and the tab handles are embellished with a trailing vine and floral design. The glass exhibits a strong neon green fluorescence under ultraviolet light, confirming the presence of uranium in the melt.
