Extra information:
Fragment from a larger decorative pressed glass object, possibly a bowl, vase, compote, or vanity ware item. The flowing relief pattern resembles drapery, shell, or stylised floral folds typical of Art Deco to mid-century decorative glass design. The fragment has been drilled, fitted with a modern metal bail, and coated in resin for stabilisation and use as jewellery. UV testing suggests it is standard white milk glass rather than uranium glass.
