1998 Heart Shaped Trinket Box Hand painted Rose in Vaseline Glass by Boyd Art Glass
All Boyd Glass items were handmade one at a time and there was a limited amount of each piece in each color, never to repeat the same color in the same mold twice.
Boyd also made their own glass to use for their glass masterpieces, this in itself makes their colors very unique.
Boyd Art Glass was only produced in small quantities, short run periods of 1 or 2 days and many of the colors are extremely hard to find.
This is Stunning - Beautiful piece of Boyd Glass history, The detail is just fabulous on this gorgeous Piece !!!
Boyd Crystal Art Glass made this Hand-painted Vaseline Glass Heart Shaped Trinket Box in 1998.
It is a satiny lemony yellow color, it is given its color by mixing Uranium in with the molten white glass causing it to glow green under a UV black light (see last two photos).
Both the lid and box has a Scroll and Feather design on them.
The lid has a hand-painted rose decoration that is signed by the artist "B Newton".
It bears the trademark "B in a Diamond w/ 4 lines" Fifth Five Years (1998-2003) typical of Boyd Crystal Art Glass on the inside of the bottom box.
What a beautiful piece to add to your Boyd Crystal Art Glass Collection !!!!
