Topic: Uranium Glass Carafe.

It's all about being in the right place at the right time Sue, although sometimes the glass seems to be calling to me  . I have to wonder how they ended up in the same place.

  This sort of thing has happened to me, but only once. I found a very scarce Tapio Wirkkala decanter one week, and 10 matching shot glasses the next.

But to have this pair of carafes when your main interest is in quality uranium pieces is really rather wonderful. I'm very pleased for you. I like good news.

Thanks Sue.

For that to happen you have to put the hours in, effort is worth more than luck.

Both together is quite good. 
And some knowledge helps a lot.

To gain that knowledge takes some time and effort, the more stuff you can handle the better which inevitably means travelling to different places, time and effort again. You can learn a huge amount via the keyboard (time and effort) but chances are won't be able to handle as much stuff just from home. Taking some new found knowledge out and about with you can be very fruitful especially with repeated cycles of learning and handling. To be in the right place at the right time usually means getting out and about as much as possible, it takes some time and effort to know where those right places are.
