Help to ID Pair of Glass Vases with Cadmium or Selenium
« on: October 27, 2022, 07:12:58 PM »
Help please to ID this pair of amber glass vases, it may help if I could remember the technique used.

They glow bright orange under a UV light.
The nearest that I can find is a Daum vase, but I do not think so.

Height 8" and each vase weighs 850gm

Thanks Roy

Apparently Cadmium glass glows yellow under UV, the addition of Selenium makes it glow pink.
