An epergne is a decorative table centrepiece designed to hold flowers, fruit, or sweetmeats, originating in the eighteenth century and becoming prominent during the Victorian era for elaborate dining presentation.

These items were created using hand-blown glass formulated with small amounts of uranium oxide for colour, featuring individual hand-formed trumpet vases with crimped or ruffled rims fitted into a central base.

Authentic uranium glass displays a distinct pale yellow-green tint that fluoresces under ultraviolet light, alongside hand-finishing indicators such as pontil marks, crimped edges, and applied glass trailing.

An epergne serves as a focal point on a dining table, sideboard, or mantelpiece, displayed either filled with delicate seasonal floral stems or unadorned to showcase its structural glass form.

Wash delicate art glass gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild dish detergent, avoiding abrasive cloths, harsh chemical cleaners, or extreme temperature fluctuations that cause thermal shock.
