Long jpurney but FINALLY!!

So I have long been on the hunt for cadmium lamps. I got my cadmium floor lamp last year, and greatly blessed to get 4 cadmium smoking stands last month. I really wanted at least one cadmium table lamp to round out my collect. Battling it out on online auctions or trying to beat folks to the items at estates has been fun and frustrating. I got to meet a lot of new people and got some great pieces. Last week, I won a pair of cadmium table lamps. This same pair I saw a duplicate of a week prior in an antique store for $575 (I almost cried). I got my pair for $65. So happy with them and they are the same style (shape wise) as my floor lamp and smoking stands. Pictures 2 to 5 are 395nm and everything else is filtered 365nm. Cadmium claw finials bonus.

Husband bought me something back from his trip

I got this snazzy little deer. I may replace the gems on the necklace to uranium pieces. Also to Dennis where ever you are, I'm taking good care of it for your Mom.

I was favored this last weekend at Estate sales and antique stores.

I was favored and blessed. I have been hunting for a Cadimum Slag Smoking stand to match my floor lamp. A gentleman on Marketplace a few months ago had posted a large collection of both uranium and Cadimum stands for a reasonable price (for like 12 of them I think). But still out of my budget. I won what I thought was a Cadimum smoking stand on Shopgoodwill as that is what the listing said. Turns out it was faux Cadimum slag aka hard plastic slag lookalike. I was majorly disappointed. But this marketplace gentleman had 4 Cadimum slag left. After negotiation, he gave me all 4 for an outstanding price. I'll post better pictures later. They are beautiful. I found the cadmium votive at an estate sale. The Westmoreland Red Carnival Duck is Boron nitride.

Very cool piece to see

It was at an antique store that used to be a dental office. The owner used to be that very dentist. We didn't see any uranium teeth but we did get 6 custard glass uranium dental trays. We did the best we could with the lighting. We also scored an Aladdin Amber Glass Oil Lamp that may or may not be uranium.

Don't sleep on the costume jewelry table at estate sales

If you love cadmium, selenium, uranium, etc, don't sleep on the costume jewelry at the estate sales. They have some awesome stuff. Usually gets left behind if it isn't attached to real metals

It's the small things sometimes that take the breath away

This beggars hand mini vase from Akro Agate is a stunner. To be honest the pictures don't do it any justice. Reminds me of the storms on Jupiter.

Continuing to add to my votive candle/toothpick holder collection

Two of them are straight up cadmium. The Eye Winker from LG Wright looks to have some Boron Nitiride on the inside.

Went to several Estate sales on very little sleep. I was so hyped. My first sale I walked away with many antique glass pieces to include an Uranium Glass Lamp/Epergne/Fish bowl combo. My bucket list got some of the completes done on it. I will post pictures of them all after they are cleaned. They are all filthy. For now, this pair of gorgeous earrings was from a Day 2 sale.
