Sorry, Shannon, I cut off some of the numbers in the eBay reference. The correct number is  370111914401. The Hadeland reference is interesting. I'll have a look for it.

I went back and checked my Flygsfors and their orange colour does glow green under a black light.

Their orange glows green?!  And it's a transparent orange, uncased?  Odd.  I suppose if there was a lot of iron in the fixin's they might add manganese to control it.

Kristi: It's a fairly solid orange, cased in clear, and with a faint green glow.

Ah...I bet the glow comes from the clear.  That's where you'd have manganese.

Shannon: I came across the piece that reminded me of your piece. It's at http://www.modernistglass.com/glasspieces/view/2635  An interesting comparison, and, although not a match, it puts Flygsfors back as a possibility, I would think.
