A Wonderful rare Vaseline / Uranium glass plate by George Davidson Dated 5/11/1895

RD254027 Somerset 5/11/1895
A fully recorded piece

Uranium glass is glass that has had uranium added to it before melting to create colours. Typically, pieces are made with low levels of uranium, meaning anywhere from trace amounts to 2%.
However, some pieces have been found to be made up of 25% uranium.

Please observe the beautiful & differing effect created by the uranium

The uranium was added for the fluorescent effect it created. It soon became incredibly popular and started to be manufactured across Europe and North America.

Most uranium glass is decorative, tableware or household items, with many pieces looking like carnival glass.
Uranium glass bowls are particularly popular.

Uranium glass is used as a blanket term for any glass containing uranium, but Vaseline glass is a very specific type of uranium glass.
Vaseline glass has a distinctive yellow colour, which is why it is often referred to as canary glass.
Vaseline glass is also transparent, whereas some types of uranium glass are opaque, such as custard glass and Burmese glass.

The correct RD number is visible but I have been unable to take suitable photos of it.
