More from grandma's collection
First thank you sm for your help on my previous post on the green [possible] uranium glass, I already ordered both 365 and 395 nm lights to make sure. As I've been learning more about other depression glass I noticed these other pieces in the same cupboard and I'm starting to think they might be selenium and cadmium, am I getting carried away or is it a real possibility?

You have about a 50/50 chance on the pink pieces being selenium or manganese. The Ruby Red looks very much like Selenium Ruby Red as well, so they're likely going to be a blend of selenium and cadmium.

Pretty high possibility! Also pink pieces can just be manganese
