This section focuses on hand painted glass from the Victorian era. Not much is currently known about the glassware shown here at the moment, but we hope to add more information over time as it becomes available. This style of glass consists of blown glass vases and urns which are often decorated with floral scenes or other scenes of nature. They come in various opaque colours including green, blue, pink and brown. Sometimes uranium oxide is used to produce a green colour, which results in the glass glowing bright green under ultraviolet (UV) light. Most hand painted Victorian glass such as the examples shown below were probably produced in Bohemia or Belgium.
Some of these vases have been seen with what appears to be the initials F.P.K. on the base. There is an interesting discussion on the glassmessages forum here: [Link]
Update - Some vases similar to the ones shown below are shown in an 1888 catalogue by Mühlhaus (Nový Bor, Bohemia), featured in the book Collectable Bohemian Glass 1880 - 1940 by Robert & Deborah Truitt, page 95. Another Bohemian manufacturer, Harrach, is also known to have produced similar items.
