Collection: Key Lime - Vaseline - Uranium Made Glassware

Uranium glass is glass which has had uranium, usually in oxide diuranate form, added to a glass mix before melting for colouration.

Uranium glass was once made into tableware and household items, but fell out of widespread use when the availability of uranium to most industries was sharply curtailed during the Cold War in the 1940s to 1990s. Most such objects are now considered antiques or retro-era collectibles, although there has been a minor revival in art glassware. Otherwise, modern uranium glass is now mainly limited to small objects like beads or marbles as scientific or decorative novelties.
