Uranium glass plates in bulk. Perfect collection starter bundle. Comes with ten glass decorative uranium plates.
Uranium glass is a type of glassware that contains small amounts of uranium, typically in the oxide form, which gives the glass a distinctive yellow-green to green color and causes it to fluoresce bright green under ultraviolet light; it was popular from the late 19th century through the early 20th century for decorative items and tableware, prized for its unique hue and sparkle, and while the uranium content makes it slightly radioactive, levels are generally low enough that properly handled pieces are considered safe for display, though collectors should avoid inhaling dust from damaged items and should store or handle large collections with basic radiation-awareness precautions.
Safety Note: It is advised not to use uranium glass for daily dining to avoid ingestion of any potential small fragments of glass itself.
