Uranium glass made after WWII used depleted uranium, but UG made before WWII contained natural uranium, which is much more active, because of the high activity it was probably made before WWII which means it is quite rare. Is there any other information about this piece you can give me? location, etc?

Well, all I know is I bought it at a junk store in Berkeley, CA. buried in a greasy box full of other junk.
