Spectacular Art Deco Uranium Round Glass Vase by Karl Palda, C1930

1920 - 1940
For Sale by Art Deco World
Description

Originating from Czech Republic this Art Deco vase not has kerb side appeal with it's very distinctive green colouring with jet black enamel accents but is a great size standing just over 18 cm and very heavy, you can definitely feel the quality in this one. Condition is excellent, I couldn't find any damage or flaws to note. Typical of Palda glass, this vase has the iconic reverse etched stylized floral accents. Fabulous round shape, will hold a good amount of flowers if you want to use it as well as display it. The enamel is crisp and free from any oxidation often found of enamel from the 30's, this is a white cloudy affect like a film over the enamelling that can be found. A genuinely beautiful vase that won't disappoint. This particular piece has come from a personal collection of over 30 years of Art Deco glass and in particular Karl Palda, please see other listings to see similar. This is the last of three vases I am listing from this private collection.

The most common color of uranium glass is pale yellowish-green, which in the 1930s led to the nickname "Vaseline glass" based on a perceived resemblance to the appearance (which was a yellow-green colour) of Vaseline brand petroleum jelly as formulated and commercially sold at that time. This vase definitely won't disappoint, we defy the new owner not to fall in love it.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Karl Palda was a prominent Bohemian glass manufacture renowned during the 1930s for innovative Art Deco designs featuring dramatic geometric patterns, enamelled accents, and contrasting cut motifs.

Uranium glass is made by adding trace amounts of uranium oxide to molten glass prior to shaping, resulting in a yellow-green hue that fluoresces under ultraviolet light. Decorative motifs were typically rendered using acid-etching, wheel-cutting, and enamel painting.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit heavy glass construction, sharp geometric etchings, precise enamelled detailing, and a strong response under ultraviolet light.

Position the vase on a dark wood sideboard or near natural light to accentuate its colour and transparency, pairing it with neutral, minimal ceramics to highlight its geometric pattern.

Clean the glass by hand using warm water and non-abrasive soap, avoiding dishwashers or harsh chemical cleaners that can degrade the surface enamel and hand-etched decoration.
