Vaseline Opaline Glass For Sale on 1stDibs
How Much is a Vaseline Opaline Glass?
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To tell if vaseline glass is real, you’re going to want to purchase a small UV blacklight, typically a flashlight. Uranium glass that’s green or yellow in hue (vaseline glass) contains uranium oxide, which will glow when exposed to a black light. Shop a large collection of authentic vaseline and uranium glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- How do I identify opaline glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024To identify opaline glass, try holding it up to a natural light source. Most pieces will appear semi-translucent and have a pinkish-red tint when viewed in the sun. Next, search for seam marks. By the 19th century, artisans used a free-blowing technique to produce opaline glass, so most pieces are free of seams. You'll also usually see a pontil on the mark, which forms when the glass is broken off during the production process. Maker's marks can also provide a clue, as some makers are especially well-known for opaline glass. Among them are Baccarat, Lalique, Saint-Louis, Le Creusot, Portieux Vallerystahl and Loren Hope. If you're still unsure whether your piece is opaline, consult a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. Explore a range of opaline glass objects on 1stDibs.
- What is French opaline glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022French opaline glass was made in France between 1810 and 1890 and has a white finish that resembles milk glass. The first colors made were turquoise, yellow and pink, but as the period progressed they made brighter colors in an effort to imitate Bohemian glass. Find a collection of expertly vetted French opaline glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Opaline glass denotes many forms of opaque glass, but primarily identifies a decorative style of glass popularized in France during the 1800s. The glass appears opaque or slightly translucent, and can come in white or a variety of bright colors. Shop a selection of opaline glass vases and decorative objects on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024To identify French opaline glass, hold it up to a light source. Genuine opaline glass should appear translucent and take on a pink or red tint. Also, turn the piece over. Because opaline glass is hand-blown, you should see a small circular point at the center of the base. If you're still not certain about the identification, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer can assist you. Find a range of opaline glass on 1stDibs.
