Mould blown (not pressed) glass jug uranium
« on: August 15, 2006, 01:12:42 PM »
A pressed uranium glass jug. I found a similar one on Pamelas site but not the same and it was unidentified I think. Any clues would be a great help.

No idea, sorry, but they are very common in the UK - I've got 3 and three matching glasses  :o

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

They're very common in the UK (I've had three and glasses to match). I would guess Dutch or Austrian.

This does not look like a pressed item. Look at the contour near the bottom ... how could this be pressed to create that shape? And allow the plunger to come out? Also, I see an interior rib optic? And, the handle looks like it's applied (a pressed handle will have a joint mark running its length).
