Camphor glass was used in decorative arts to make bottles, glass objects, lamp shades and more. In jewelry the glass was often cast with a star pattern on the reverse to give it a radiant appearance. Camphor glass is clear glass that has been treated with hydrofluoric acid vapors to give it a frosted whitish appearance.
