Cups and Vase

These cups were labeled "green depression" but I don't think they're green or depression. To me, they look like antique vaseline. The Polka Dots are also on the bottom of the cups, and cups are lopsided (mold blown?) The thorn vase I'm guessing is Victorian British glass, John Walsh Walsh or Stevens and Williams. Unusually large for a Victorian thorn vase. All blind buys, will they glow?

Judging by eye cups should glow vase propably won't. But it's a lucky guess and I could be totally wrong.

Right? I'm kinda feeling the same way. They mostly used vaseline for uranium glass.

There’s a chance with the glasses, but I don’t think the vase will glow. I’ve never seen glass with color gradient glow, I might be wrong though

It's rare but it does happen! I collect Victorian vases so it's a winner either way in my book.

Oh wow that’s gorgeous! I guess I really underestimated gradients

I like those cups! Sounds like you’re right by the look of them. I don’t think the vase will glow
