A centerpiece that dances in the light. 1930s ‘Cameo’ Uranium Glass Oval Console Bowl | The "Dancing Girl"
 
This exquisite 10-inch oval vegetable bowl is a premier example of Depression-era artistry. Produced by Anchor Hocking between 1930 and 1934, the ‘Cameo’ pattern (famously known as "Ballerina") features an intricate etched design of delicate floral swags centering on a graceful dancing figure.
 
In daylight, it glows with a soft, translucent spring green. But turn on a UV blacklight, and this authentic Uranium glass transforms into a vibrant, neon emerald masterpiece—a luminous "party trick" that never fails to enchant guests.

The lucid ladybug Perspective
Whether you’re using it to serve seasonal greens or as a standalone "console dish" on an entryway table, this bowl embodies the Lucid Ladybug mission: celebrating history while honoring the planet. By choosing a pre-loved heirloom over a modern mass-market alternative, you’re hosting with intention and a smaller carbon footprint.
 
Hosting Tip: This 10-inch oval shape is incredibly versatile. It’s deep enough for a side dish but shallow enough to be filled with floating candles or flower blossoms for a "Shower Season" centerpiece.
