Federal Glass Uranium Green Depression Colonial Fluted Rope‎ 4.5" Berry Bowl Vtg

This uranium glass bowl was produced by Federal Glass Company during the mid-20th century, likely between the 1930s and 1950s. Federal Glass was a prominent American manufacturer known for their Depression-era glassware and distinctive Colonial Fluted pattern featuring rope-edge detailing. The green uranium glass glows under UV light due to trace amounts of uranium oxide added to the glass mixture, a popular decorative technique of the era that was discontinued after World War II due to uranium restrictions.  Uranium glass pieces are highly sought after by Depression glass collectors and vintage glassware enthusiasts who appreciate both the historical significance and the unique fluorescent properties of these items. The Federal Glass Colonial Fluted pattern with its distinctive rope rim is particularly popular among collectors specializing in American pressed glass from the Depression and mid-century periods. These bowls represent an accessible entry point into uranium glass collecting while offering the visual appeal of their characteristic green glow and elegant geometric design.
