History
  • Uranium glass, often referred to as Vaseline glass, became popular during the late 19th and early 20th century, primarily due to its distinctive glow under ultraviolet light, which can be a charming reflection of that era's design experimentation.
  • The use of uranium in glassmaking reflects historical practices where glassmakers sought to create unique and visually striking effects, hinting at a time when materials were explored for both their aesthetic and potential radioactive properties.
