Found this at a second hand shop in Sweden. It’s pretty rare to actually find anything uranium related so it would be cool if this one was something. Would be my first ever find in ever.
Found this in a jar of vintage marbles, I asked if I could buy one marble out of the jar and she let me have it for free!!!
Can someone tell me if it definitely is uranium?
Felt like this one deserved its own post. When I was picking up the oil lamp I previously posted, the seller offered me this one as well and I couldn’t pass it up! It’s gorgeous and is in amazing condition! Paid $340 for the pair, this one and the Aladdin model B but it was worth it to me
It is really awesome but 1000 dollars seems a lot thoughts? (It's 2 feet 3 inches tall)
i was in the middle of telling my partner id be shocked if goodwill had anything good for a reasonable price when my light happened to hit the bowl and it. yeah i was proven wrong pretty quickly 😭 after a long day of encountering really neat pieces out of my budget i was feeling kinda disappointed. the gods of goodwill sensed i needed a lucky break......
Hi folks. This is definitely made with uranium, I have a lot of uranium AND carnival. I’ve not had carnival glow for me. 395. I believe it’s Fenton? Correct and inform me please!
I got this small uranium glass bowl. Plus other uranium items at the antique store next to me. Just showing them off. What y'all think? Nice right. But the first pic, is the uranium bowl o got for a got price. Also some manganese and a cadmium bowl I also got. Enjoy.
They were shot using UVA 365nm.lighy and UVC 254nm light. Not were led flashlight.
I was hoping to get more information on these vases. They appear to be opaline but I came across a post claiming opaline is never frosted and these have partial areas of frosted glass on the outside. The lighter design appears white and is accented with gold. They definitely have significant uranium content! I found them in a thrift store so I’m currently at a loss for accurate details regarding their origin.
I have not been in a thrift store in months because I have a collecting problem. Today I popped into a Goodwill only because it was next to the store I had to go to. I got all of these for exactly $18! I wasn’t positive they’d even light up, but thought it was still a good deal.
Got home and used my tiny uv flashlight on them and voila! This made my day!
Picked this up for $50 bucks I love this thing I couldn't find much online about it though did I over pay?
Found these at a local antique market, definitely overpaid about $240 for all of it. But I’m a new collector and just wanted to get some pieces to make a real display. Fenton custard bowl and fostoria pitcher. The plates and bowl are depression glass and he threw in the manganese bud vase for free. He had just the fostoria pitcher for priced at 225, so I figured it was as fair enough deal for everything, still probably overpaid though haha
My latest find a pitcher and 8 cup set I also found a nice cadmium piece
Seller advised these are semi-modern Jabo marbles from the early 1990s that utilized some of Fenton’s old glass stock, lots of which contained uranium and cadmium (which is so cool because I love me some glowing Fenton). Not sure why it never occurred to me that some marbles might contain uranium/cadmium/etc. But, now that I know, I’m in big trouble! 😋
I would have got the butterfly but only the small gems were uranium and a couple were missing.
Even if it didn't glow, NZD$20 was a good price for this Stevens & Williams vase so wouldn't have been mad either way but the spice was a lovely outcome 😊
Chalkware. Original looking cord is frayed. Holds 7w nightlight bulb. They want $210. I don’t have $210 to spare. (Sad face)
