custard glass - pale yellow with baby blue lining.
Is it UV reactive?
If you take it out in the daylight I'm guessing the exterior will be pale yellow.
do let me know  :)

PS off topic but I just noted our number of posts and realised that I joined the board almost 4 years ago.  I can't believe it's been that long.  For info you joined a year after me, but are not far  behind me in number of posts lol, so I'm not as verbose as I thought I was ;D

Pale aqua sounds nice,this thing looks greyish in some lights,definitely not pale yellow,I'm not so much verbose as 'post-happy',baby blue top yes,turquoise cased in white jade,not really,it's a sickly sort of colour sort of what you expect a cyst or a boil to look like :-X ::)yeuch!
