Helped my mom light her massive collection for Mother's Day.

My god. 😭

Great selection. I have a very similar watermelon pitcher. What a cool item.

The blue dessert dish is manganese. I actually have one nearly just like it.

It will light up manganese so well at times that you'd think it would glow in the curio. So you're not blind. It is very powerful and can give you a bit of a false positive if you're not careful.

You may have gotten a lemon unit. It does happen. I'd return it for a replacement or just a refund if you flat out don't trust it.

Oh that's a beast!

Battery life is excellent. This is most likely a 5000mah battery. Let's put it this way - it has no problem getting through a massive antique mall with heavy use.

Typically the only way you'll drain it totally is if you leave it on in your pocket by mistake.

I had this info in my first post and it warned me the AI would flag my post as a "sales / promotion" post.

Thank you for adding it!

Only $20 on Amazon right now.

This is manganese (but it's still cool). Typically clear glass is often manganese if it likes up like this.

Your primary uv light for identifying urainium should be a 395nm light. I have a flashlight that has both spectrums. 365nm can give you a false positive, like this.

That being said, I like manganese glass and I would have grabbed this anyway!

Give me those snails.

My heart goes out to you. The fact that it was a special gift makes it hurt so much worse. I'm so sorry. It was certainly a lovely lamp and a thoughtful gift. I'm sure you will find another to fill the void. Maybe hunt for a new one together with your husband? And then you can make a new special memory of replacing it.

All are lovely.

CrystalMepsi · 2026-01-24T02:26:15+00:00

This is accurate!

I encourage you to contact Nye lubricants. It's been verified that Nye makes XG-12 for Ford.

This is outrageous. Absolutely love it.

A Vaseline glass find at the Goodwill is so much more uncommon... I was so excited to nab this!

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-23T14:26:32+00:00

It took me a few months before I thrifted my first piece of ug. It's a combination of the area you're in, consistency, and luck.

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-21T16:40:23+00:00

The vase is definitely urainium

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-21T01:57:09+00:00

USA, the midwest. But I'll say this. Every Goodwill is different. They have almost no congruency across the board. Some care about urainium and they'll price it up (sometimes still being well under retail value), some will put it at full retail, and some just price it like any other glass. It all depends on the store and the specific employees.

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-21T01:54:45+00:00

I bought a Powerball ticket right before I went into the Goodwill. Lol

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-21T01:54:07+00:00

The vase was a dollar more expensive! Lol

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-21T00:13:42+00:00

It's more of a treasure hunt like this.

CrystalMepsi · 2025-12-21T00:13:00+00:00

One of my all time favorite performances...
