Art Deco uranium crackle glass vase?
« on: November 11, 2009, 04:12:58 PM »
Hi all - I'm quite new to this uranium glass lark and I only have a cigarette lighter with a tiny UV light. So.....is this uranium? It has a ground, smooth pontil, and plenty of wear, scratches etc. to the base. It is roughly 17cm tall and has the odd air bubble. Help please!!!! Thanks Peejy

Yes, it's uranium. Most probably Royal Brierley, shape D107, WWII to 1965. Info Skelcher Big Book of Vaseline Glass
