Don't know who but it just looks like green glass to me. I would be very surprised if it was uranium glass

probably sufficient to buy a u.v. torch  -  something for around £8 - £10 should be adequate, of which there are plenty showing on ebay.

You can bay/buy a jewellers loupe which has both white and uv lamps and replaceable batteries, very handy and sharply priced
