Vaseline Glass Basket, Westmoreland, Woolworth, Uranium Glass, Grape Pattern, Candy Dish, Green Glass
A beautiful green vaseline (uranium) glass basket by Westmoreland. The pattern is called Woolworth and consists of dots and grapes with leaves. This glass is highly collectible. It would be a wonderful candy dish on a coffee table, buffet, or sideboard. In the bathroom, it would be lovely filled with specialty soaps.
When discussing vaseline or uranium glass in the United States, collectors are referencing a type of old glass that is yellow or yellow-green in normal light and glows bright green under a blacklight. The nickname "vaseline" comes from the resemblance of some pieces to the hue of Vaseline petroleum jelly, which is light yellow in color. The yellow color of a piece of vaseline glass can actually vary to the naked eye under different light sources. But to purists, it must fluoresce bright green under a blacklight or it doesn't qualify and this piece does glow very bright green under a black light.

4 inches in height including handle
1 inch in height (bowl)
5 ½ inches in diameter
