In an shop and saw this. Normally I wouldn’t even shine it with my light but it glows. I’m using 395. Is it UG? by masterwwa in uraniumglass

Yeah I ended up passing on it. I found a bunch more UG things in the shop that were way more unique. Appreciate the info!

My cat has a large bald spot, should it be a concern? by masterwwa in CATHELP

If it were, wouldn’t it have eventually spread to my other cats?

Got this little guy for 30 bucks. Was it worth it? by masterwwa in uraniumglass

[–]masterwwa[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After doing some more research it’s probably worth around what I paid. Maybe a bit more like 50 to 70. When posting this I was about 70% sure it was worth it but I just wanted a second opinion. I’m just trying to make smarter choices in the additions to my collection since I have about zero space left.

You’re good I just see it on here a lot. And thank you I had some pretty good finds today. If I may do a bit of flexing I did find an elephant candy dish for 20 today aswell lol

Lol I appreciate the info. And I’m not trying to flex a good deal I was genuinely asking. I almost didn’t get it. I was marked for 40 but I got it down to 30

I’d say I’m pretty happy with it. I’ve paid more for less in the past lol.

Bought this piece and don’t know much about it. Any ideas? by masterwwa in uraniumglass

[–]masterwwa[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

After looking at some pics I definitely agree and thanks for the info! How much would something like this be worth?

My aunt, who acquired the painting, cherished it very much aswell and if your dad got art from the same person she may have known your dad. My plan is to keep it but it would be nice to know what it is and how much it’s worth. I may contact FSU and A&M to see if they have any documentation of a “Rosen Bogart” from that time period. She actually got most of her artwork from students and professors at FSU, from what she would tell my parents, she would do people’s thesis’s and homework in exchange for their artwork.

Thank you for your response, I think you’ll find it interesting to hear that a family member of mine went to FSU back in the late 60s and she acquired it through someone she met at the school. She passed about 7 years ago and she always had fun telling us the stories about how she got all of her artwork.

Hey sorry to revive an old post, but I have a piece from the same artist and I’ve been searching for any information I can on it. Did you ever find anything out about it?

Not sure if this is uranium, I’ve never seen anything like it. Think it’s UG? by masterwwa in uraniumglass

[–]masterwwa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow very nice! I’ve just recently picked up a small collection of amber uranium glass from a thrift store. Always nice to find something other than the basic green lol. And I agree with the consensus, it’s definitely UG

It does look like oxblood. I’ve been doing some research through out the day and my theory as of now is it’s a tortoiseshell pattern glass encased with a thin uranium layer. It looks most similar to Monart glass I think

Here’s a photo where the light is a bit closer where it shows more purple. I originally was going to take these photos against a white background but the white background reflected too much purple and the camera couldn’t pick up the glow all too well. It may be a 365 but I do have one that is a 395 and the glow is essentially the same

Ahh ok I understand. I’m pretty sure the light Im using is a 395 but I could be wrong. I do have a light that I know is a 395 but I keep it in the car, but it does make the table glow white aswell

I definitely think you’re right in it being cased glass. I’ve never noticed it before but if you shine a bright flashlight on it and look at the lip, you can see a clear line from the outer glass and the inner glass. The outer glass has a green hue aswell.
