Moser Style Gem Ashtray Glows Blue Turquoise Glass Geometric Multifaceted Vtg
This is a striking Art Deco uranium crystal ashtray, dating to the 1920s–30s and attributed to the renowned Bohemian glassmaking tradition. Cut in a multifaceted, jewel-like form from thick turquoise crystal, it glows a vivid neon green under UV/blacklight thanks to its uranium content. The crisp faceting and saturated color make it a standout collector’s piece in the “Moser style” of the era.
