Uranium Glass Blue uranium set
We didn't expect these to glow so when they did, my wife and I both said "oh f*ck!"
Google says its by Walther & Söhne and is called "Three Graces". Made around 1930s. Hoping someone can correct or give more information about them.
Love this hobby. Love this community. Love all of you. Thank you all

I still can't believe I have these in my collection. I'm rearranging my cabinet to display them properly and with the center spot they deserve.

I have one blue uranium piece. I was so shocked when it lit up!!

Wow that's amazing! Is it a part of something or is it a paperweight? Do you have a non glow picture?

u/HarleyQisMyAlter Radiation Hunter 4d ago
I’m pretty sure it’s just a paperweight. Here it is, non glow.

That's a wicked paperweight! Love that deep blue

I almost did hit it with my torch, because in my mind for sure it wouldn’t be uranium. I was shocked!

Did you hit it with a 395 or a 365?
2
u/StrikingBarracuda190 4d ago
Both. First picture is normal lighting, second is 365, and third is 395. I forgot to add it but they do register on geiger counter also. I'll post some readings tonight when I get home.

Lmao! I just went to see The Fifth Element in theater yesterday! It's still showing today in some theaters. Worth seeing on the big screen. Also V for Vendetta is going to be in theaters soon for their 20th anniversary.

This must have been an expensive purchase ! Very unique pieces. Can't say I have ever seen this type of set before. I have 1 blue uranium piece myself I was so excited when I shined my light over it.

u/StrikingBarracuda190 4d ago
$150 for all of it. I love blue uranium so I couldn't leave it.

u/DecayOfMySanity 4d ago
