  • Uranium Glass ☢

    Uranium glass, often called Vaseline glass or canary glass, is a stunning must-have for collectors and glassware enthusiasts. Infused with uranium oxide, this glass showcases a vibrant yellow-green hue in daylight but truly dazzles under UV light, where it glows with an electrifying, sci-fi green at around 365 nm (UV-A). Its captivating fluorescence makes it a show-stopping centerpiece, transforming any room into a glowing display of antique charm.

    Despite its uranium content, this glass is safe for display and handling, offering the thrill of a "radioactive" relic with minimal risk. Its unique glow and historical roots in Victorian and early 20th-century glassmaking make it a fascinating piece of art, blending science, history, and aesthetic appeal—perfect for those wanting to add a touch of glowing magic to their collection!

  • Manganese Glass

    Manganese glass, also known as amethyst glass, is a hidden gem for glass collectors and antique lovers alike. This enchanting glass starts as clear, but over time, sunlight transforms it into a stunning light purple, thanks to the magic of manganese oxidation.

    Unlike uranium glass, manganese glass is completely safe, letting you enjoy its beauty worry-free. Its shifting colors and UV-reactive glow are not just a feast for the eyes but also a fascinating glimpse into glassmaking history. Owning manganese glass means having a piece of art that evolves over time, adding an element of wonder to your home. Perfect for anyone wanting to add a vintage, glowing touch to their space—this glass is an absolute must-have for those who appreciate the rare and remarkable!
