Amberina glass is a type of art glass known for its unique color-changing properties. Here are some key details about Amberina glass:Characteristics: Color Gradient: Amberina glass features a beautiful gradient of colors, typically transitioning from a deep ruby red at the top to a rich amber or yellow at the bottom. This effect is achieved through a reheating process during production. Material: The glass is made by adding a small amount of colloidal gold to the molten glass. When the glass is slowly reheated, the gold particles create the stunning color shift. Variations: There are two main variations of Amberina glass. The first is clear glass with the color gradient, and the second is cased glass with a white milk glass interior, known as plated Amberina. Reverse Amberina: Some pieces are made in a reverse style, where the amber shade is on top, and the deep ruby red is at the bottom. Glow: Some Amberina glass pieces can glow under UV light, showing vibrant shades of orange, yellow, and red.History: Invention: Amberina glass was developed in 1863 by Joseph Locke at the New England Glass Company. The technique was later patented by Locke and Edward D. Libbey. Popularity: The New England Glass Company produced Amberina glass until the late 1890s, and other manufacturers continued to produce it after the patent expired. Manufacturers: Several American and foreign glass manufacturers produced Amberina glass, including Blenko, Degenhart, Fenton, Hobbs, Brockunier & Company, L.G. Wright, Libbey, Mt. Washington, and Moser.Collectibility: Value: Amberina glass pieces are highly sought after by collectors, especially those from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Hand-painted decorations and pieces in fine condition can fetch premium prices Identification: Authentic Amberina glass will have a smooth color gradient, while fakes may have abrupt color changes or painted-on colors that can flake off over time.
