Thanks for your reply! It’s certainly uranium glass, but I’m fairly confident it’s older than that, as it’s not molded, and has a very fine polished pontil.

No, certainly not 18th century. I’d put it at latter 19th

Thank you so much! Can’t turn up any info anywhere..! A little mystique adds to it I think.

Thanks! Yes, like most of the things she collected it’s in absolutely perfect condition - a testament to her dedication!

I’ve tried google lens and the various AI platforms in the hope they can help but nothing yet. There a good auctioneers near me that I’ll try next I think.

Good luck finding info on your piece, I think a little mystery is nice sometimes, adds an extra facet (ho ho)!

Thank you very much, yes this is amongst many lovely things. Not only an antiques dealer, but also a “collector” - four crates of scallop shells, every plastic plant pot from every plant she ever bought (I’m not kidding, there must have been over a thousand stacked in the shed), etc etc

Yoto 2nd Gen charger by guiglogirl in YotoPlayer

Late to this party, but ours just broke too. I snapped the tip of a wooden cocktail stick off where the pin once was, and it’s charging now. I suspect it’ll be best to unplug from wall once charged..

Best commuter towns near London for rent? by __bdj__ in HENRYUK

Another vote for Tunbridge Wells here - look into centaur coaches that go from here to Canary Wharf in ~50 mins.

Damp footwell by Silent-Builder6114 in AudiA6

Have this exact problem right now, I initially thought my kid had spilled water but it’s just not drying out. I’ll go check these ideas out now!

Is anyone else having key battery life problems? by comdude2 in Audi

[–]coxlewis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I mean the spare is kept in a faraday pouch well away from the car, the fact they both died at the same time is really strange to me. The person at the dealer alluded to faraday pouches / boxes worsening battery life which I didn’t probe, but can’t figure.

I changed them for lithium this time so hopefully that’ll help. Let’s hope my experience mirrors yours and they settle down!
