How can I tell if it's Vaseline glass?
To tell if vaseline glass is real, you’re going to want to purchase a small UV blacklight, typically a flashlight. Uranium glass that’s green or yellow in hue (vaseline glass) contains uranium oxide, which will glow when exposed to a black light. Shop a large collection of authentic vaseline and uranium glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
