Topic: Uranium jade beakers - ID = probably Nason

[Anne]

These have me totally foxed as I know zilch about this type of glass - way out of my comfort zone - but the colour is just fabulous!

They are 4¼" (110mm) tall, and 3" (75mm) across their widest point. Fairly lightweight,  one weights 127g and the other 153g. Mouldblown?

No marks anywhere as far as I can tell. They both ring like a bell. The glass has the odd bubble and is sort of cloudy with fine bits in it, hard to describe really. Glow like mad under UV light.

Any help with these would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Wow , fancy that, Christine , you beat me to it ( yes , show us yours )

Its like a radioactive Uranium and Apple flavour whisked up Angel Delight

Glasses a bit more bubbly than the jug.

Thanks Christine and Andy, they do look very similar, don't they?  It'd be great to be able to track down a maker. Christine, please do post pics of yours.

Here's mine (I have 6 beakers) plus a little coaster ashtray thing I picked up at the weekend

Ohhhh interesting, thanks Christine.  Your pic shows the colour better than mine. Mine are the same colour but look paler in my pics. Am still getting to grips with Barry's new camera!

Did anyone say Nason?

[Andy]

Very nice Christine.
I wonder where they come from?

Nice in hot weather, full of still Lemonade from M & S, recommended
