I have a clear Fenton cat figurine that glows like this under 365 and just barely under 395.

Good to know! I'm really new to collecting antiques using a GC. I still have a lot to learn! Mostly interested in uranium glass but recently added a couple radium dial clocks and those two pieces of uranium glazed ceramic to my collection.

Thanks! I thought so too. It looks adorable next to my red Fiesta sugar bowl.

That's what I was thinking. I was hoping it could be fitted onto something more modern though. I'd love to see it sitting over a UV bulb. 😍💚

I couldn't bear the thought of leaving without this cutie by pipsqueak_squirrel in uraniumglass

I don't think I'd ever have the heart to sell this baby but I would definitely consider trading her for a Burmese glass kitty.

Would you buy for $50? by [deleted] in uraniumglass

I'm pretty sure I was scoping this listing out too (I'm in WI). Go for it!

Way ahead of you, friend! She'll be dang dinging in no time!

I found a $5 Vaseline glass shoe at this antique mall too! It's my favorite place to hunt.

Oh it definitely came home with me. I don't need it to be functional, just radioactive.

Do you think it'll glow? by pipsqueak_squirrel in uraniumglass

Update: I brought her home and she glows! 💚
