History: Uranium glass, known for its distinctive green hue and fluorescence under UV light, gained popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. During the Great Depression (1929–1939), manufacturers produced affordable glassware, often distributing it as promotional items. The addition of uranium oxide gave the glass its unique glow. Production declined during World War II due to uranium restrictions but saw a resurgence post-war. Today, these pieces are prized for their historical significance and unique appearance.
