I bought a huge 30cm tall jade vase online for $50, unfortunately it didn't survive the transit. I'll get my money back, but I'm still beyond sad, so please grieve with me 😭

The last 2 pics are how it looked

Found a tiny piece of what I assume to be calcite on an evening walk with a uv light! It was lying on a piece of sandstone, and was surprised how long it keeps the glow after the uv (365nm) light is gone

The first pic is right after I turned off the uv. The second one is under direct 365nm light, and the last 2 are under a regular white LED light

I keep randomly remembering my charge tti has a lanyard loop every few month only to forget and be surprised again 😂 Be honest, how many of you didn't know it was a thing?

Do you guys have any ug gems? These are mine. (I know the glow looks weird so don't be shy to ask for a gegiger pic if you're curious)

Uranium liadro. Had to leave it behind cause $60 is a tad bit pricey for me and the glow is a lot more white in person

An old paperweight. The color kinda looks like low contents Vaseline but I'm not sure. What do you guys think? I'll update in 2 weeks

Free ug is the best ug! A seller i regularly visit at a flea market asked me if i wanted a uranium chunk for free and of course I said yes! It's the middle of a candlestick that didn't survive shipping

Amber ug Avon perfume bottle! I would have never believed this is ug if not for my trusty geiger.

It even has some perfume left!

I FINALLY found a cheap ug clock! This guy was only $10!! I gave it a polish (the last 2 pics are the before and after) and now it looks almost brand new (except for the clock face obviously). It doesn't work, but for $10 I couldn't complain

Found a set of ug chess pieces at a flea market. Unfortunately it was $250

Newest custard piece and I'm in love! It features 3 slightly different hand painted drawings of field flowers and a gilded rim. The glow is very bright and its spicier than usual, I was able to get a clean spectrum within 5 minutes!

Found a crazy piece yesterday! Pink uranium enamel droplets on one side and yellow (much hotter) uranium enamel on the back side (spectrums included). First time seeing anything like this!

Pic 2 - 365nm, pic 3 - 395nm, pic7 - 365nm
