Is this family relic uranium or manganese?

Just found these in an old cupboard which belonged to my grandmother, I'm new to this but I was told the brand is Jeanette and the model is Adam from the 1930s so it's from the US. I just lit it with an old incandescent black light as it's the only thing I have available rn so idk if it's 365nm or 395nm. We lit it in the dark and though it appears vibrant in pictures I'd say it was kinda faint irl So could this be just manganese? Or low quantity uranium?

Chandelier!

Hello all! I am heading to pick up this chandelier soon (and will love it regardless of glow) but figured I’d put it out there… What do you guys think? Will she glow?

Thoughts Before Purchasing

I need additional eyes on this since it is pricey & I'm not very good when it comes to ug jewelry. It says it's Czech made which gives me hope.

Two paperweights

One expensive blind buy, one cheap. The Orient and Flume is out for delivery today! The egg I just bought, so it's going to be a while. It's almost 3lbs!

Is this what I think it is?

I’m on the fence about this one due to the $100 price tag and I already have the custard one. Seller says no blacklight

Uranium or manganese?

The second photo shows it under 395 nm UV light, and the third under 365 nm. I bought it as uranium glass, but now I’m not sure, because it seems more like manganese glass

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

Is this a custard face clock?

I don’t have one yet because they’re always stupid expensive, but this one is listed super cheap. This is the only photo and the description just says “hand missing on boy”
