    I grabbed this today. I didn't have my UV light but I gambled and trusted in my judgement. How foolish of me. I have tried it under the lamp at home and it glows.

    Can't find anything like it online. It is 12" in diameter.

    Nice, Chin. Are you sure the leaves are impressed? Maybe wheel engraved or etched?

    Hi AJ. No I'm not sure about it being impressed at all. It was a description given without any reason or thought. Much more likely to be engraved as you say. There are lines in the pattern which would perhaps suggest a wheel being used to grind the glass. IMG20230811190349_copy_1407x1055.jpg
