That's the bright green uranium glow; definitely uranium glass

I'm not really sure to be honest.
Or maybe it's hard to see bcause it's a green vase?

And by the way, what is the purpose of having uranium in the glass?

[Lustrousstone]

I am sure it's uranium glass (I have hundreds of pieces of uranium glass). Uranium adds depth of colour and vibrancy to green glass when it's seen in daylight. On its own, uranium provides a rich yellow colour

Well, I think I should have me a new/brighter blacklight,
and make some new pictures to convince myself 

[Lustrousstone]

What you show is exactly what you would expect with any blacklight shining on uranium glass; that is the uranium glow.

Haha okay. I'm very willing to believe you.

I just wanted to be a 100% sure, instead of the 80% I was.
Because I don't want to sell it, saying it's uranium glass, while there's a chance it could be otherwise.

Thank you
