1930s Uranium Glass Fruit & Cake Knife w/ Box & Insert Depression Era – Glows UV

Vintage 1930s uranium glass fruit & cake knife, complete with original box, tissue, and printed insert. This piece glows a bright neon green under UV light, confirming uranium content. Marketed in its time as “always clean and sanitary,” these knives were given as wedding gifts and prized for resisting fruit acids. This example comes with provenance — a handwritten wedding gift note dated March 5, 1933. Knife is intact, approx. 8–9” long, with no chips or cracks. Box shows light age wear but is solid. Rare to find complete with packaging, insert, and historical note. A standout collectible for uranium glass enthusiasts, Depression glass collectors, or vintage kitchenware fans.
