Phosphorescence: a beautiful apple green positive.-- This validates its provenance as an American Brilliant Period cut glass item. The luminescence is a result of adding manganese to the molten glass mixture to decolorize the iron in the sand. It validates the Period because the 40 year Period between 1870 and 1916 was the time in the course of ABP history that manganese was employed. Brilliant Period cut glass as a result of the combined hardening and radiance producing lead oxide with the added manganese was named the finest cut glass in the world.
