What is Uranium Glass?
Uranium glass, often called Vaseline glass due to its distinctive yellow-green hue, is a special type of glass that contains small amounts of uranium oxide. Developed in the early 19th century, primarily in Bohemia (modern-day Czech Republic), uranium glass became widely popular for its bright color and its fascinating ability to fluoresce a vivid green when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. The uranium content is very low and safe, making these vintage and modern glass items both collectible and intriguing.
Origins and Craftsmanship:
The tradition of uranium glass production has deep roots in the Czech glassmaking industry, especially in the Bohemian region, which has been renowned worldwide for its exquisite glass artistry since the 14th century. Bohemian artisans mastered the technique of incorporating uranium oxide into glass formulas to achieve the signature glowing effect, combining centuries-old craftsmanship with scientific innovation.
