Description
Rare and highly collectible uranium glass Venus "Bashful Charlotte" flower frog, crafted in translucent green Vaseline glass and formed as a classical Venus-style standing female figure atop a perforated pedestal base designed to hold flower stems. This piece is both a functional antique flower frog and a striking example of figural art glass, making it especially desirable to advanced collectors.
Made from authentic uranium glass, this Venus flower frog exhibits the signature green hue and will glow brilliantly under UV/black light, a defining characteristic sought by uranium and Vaseline glass enthusiasts. Figural flower frogs are considerably rarer than standard dome or block forms, and the Venus motif places this example in a higher-tier collectible category.
Ideal for display in a curio cabinet, black-light collection, or antique glass showcase, this piece bridges the worlds of art glass, floral display history, and classical figural design.
Offered estate fresh from a private collection.
