Vacation finds

Vacation was cancelled for a few different reasons so we just stayed at home and traveled to a few new spots we had never been to before. This was the haul. Back to reality now I guess.

Vintage 1930s MacBeth-Evans 'Grecian Urn' Monax Toothpick Holder

I bought this because it had a great glow under 365. It did not glow under 395. I figured high content manganese but Google is telling me uranium. Pleasantly surprised for just 6 dollars. Is this uranium milk glass?

Damaged pieces

Anybody else that’s not afraid to buy damaged pieces? I don’t resell so I just angle the chip to the back in my display. Also gives you the opportunity to get otherwise expensive pieces on the cheap.

Blue uranium glass?

My mom gave me this tiny blue plate that lights up green under 395. Just this morning I was reading about blue uranium glass and I didn’t even know it was a thing. It’s been sitting in the back of her cabinet forever so she isn’t sure where it came from. What do you guys think?

Westite Lamp

I purchased this lamp today. I am having trouble finding any info on it. Apparently Westite Glass Company burned down at some point so there isn’t much available. The lampshade is milk glass and not original. I would like to replace the shade with something more appropriate for the time period.
