Vintage Blenko Amberina Art Glass Red Trinket Dish
This vintage collectible heart-shaped bowl or ashtray features a vibrant ruby red to amberina coloration. The glass glows under black light due to its amberina composition, a type of glass that typically contains trace amounts of gold, or sometimes selenium and cadmium, which cause it to fluoresce under UV light. The piece has a thick, organic form with swooping edges, making it a striking decorative object. Its sculptural design is characteristic of the mid-century modern style. The exterior sides of the glass are smooth, while the interior of the bowl has a more textured, frosted appearance, adding visual interest and depth.
Bowl in good condition, with little to no signs of use.
