Hi Helga,

For some reason, your pictures don't want to blow up for me, so I can't see the details.  Maybe it's just my computer acting funny. :-\

My fish was discussed in this thread: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,45559.0.html  
John's nephew has got my fish's cousin as well, only it's a whale. :)

 :hi:

Uranium has been used in glass somewhere almost continuously for 170 odd years. Your fish doesn't have the right colours for uranium (in general) and to my knowledge Ronneby Konstglass didn't use uranium
