Important Condition Information
This is a vintage set and does show signs of age and previous use.
There are chips around the edge of the large glass tray/plate. These can be seen in the photographs and should be carefully considered before purchasing.
There may also be:
- Light surface scratches and marks
- Small edge nibbles
- General age-related wear
- Moulding/manufacturing irregularities typical of older pressed glass
The condition has been taken into account when pricing the set.
Please study all photographs carefully, particularly the edges of the large tray, as the photographs form an important part of the description and show the condition of the actual items you will receive.
No manufacturer's mark is visible in the supplied photographs, so I would not attribute the set to a particular maker without further evidence.

Uranium Glass
The colour and appearance are consistent with green glass that is sometimes sold as uranium/vaseline glass. However, the glass has not been confirmed as uranium glass by UV testing, so uranium content is not guaranteed.
If subsequently tested under UV light and it produces the characteristic strong green fluorescence, the listing can be updated accordingly.
A wonderfully decorative vintage set despite the condition issues, ideal for an Art Deco interior, vintage dressing table display or collection of early green pressed glass.
