Main photo of Victorian uranium glass basket seen from the side decorated with pink glass flowers and butterscotch glass leaves, stalks and handles. The handle appears to be part of the foliage like a vine stalk. The uranium glass is the actual basket which could appear like the lower half of a hard boiled egg. The colour could be described as milky minty yellow. The wonderful thing about this item is that whilst this side is decorated with flowers, the opposite side is without decoration so on your 'no bling' days you can opt for egg shell. Add to basket
