Pretty UGly Treasures

08/22/2025

It's the end of an era 💔 I will be selling all remaining inventory($2,000+ of uranium glass items and jewelry) plus displays, materials, etc. If you are interested, please send a message for details! 💚☢️

If anyone is interested in my entire booth inventory, please send a message and make an offer. At the moment, there are vintage glass pieces, a clock, barometer, glazed pieces, a sconce, vintage jewelry, sterling silver rings, and tons of handmade jewelry (earrings, bracelets, necklaces, etc.). I will also include inventory that isn't in the booth as well including a vintage stand mixer with 2 jadeite bowls and some plates. You can keep them for your own collection, sell them yourself, or take them apart and make something with the materials. I can throw in my packaging materials, tags, labels, etc. too if you'd like. I am considering selling my jewelry making materials as well (ug beads, findings, etc.) for the right price. I would prefer local pickup in Northwest Indiana just because shipping everything would be a hassle. If you are interested, please send a message. This stuff really doesn't make me happy anymore and I'm hoping it will go to someone that will be happy with it.

I am considering selling everything in my booth as a lot including several pieces of glass that haven't been put in the shop(including a mixer with jadeite bowls). For the right price, I can also sell jewelry making supplies (beads, findings, etc.). This just doesn't make me happy anymore and I'm ready to move on to something else. I'd just like to get some of my money back since I've put so much in as well as time. You can keep everything for yourself, start your own shop, or take everything apart and make something else. If you are interested, please send me a message and make an offer.

I'm obsessed with this beautiful uranium glass inkwell I found! The glow is beautiful 💚 ☢️

I'll be adding this beautiful, vintage wall sconce to the booth very soon! It is uranium glazed and glows very bright under a 365nm blacklight. It has been checked with a Geiger as well. I have not tested it because I am unsure of how to handle the wiring. The pull chain seems to work fine, and it seems as if it fits a standard light bulb. It would be cool to put a 365nm blacklightbulb in it for display! Keep an eye out for when this awesome piece hits the shop!

WHAT'S THAT GLOW?? I know these aren't all of the elements/materials that can make glass glow under a blacklight, but these are the most common ones that you may come across while hunting or even in your own cabinets at home! Some may be a combination of these, a faint residue of one, or even something else entirely. I am currently working on more charts to make it easier for beginners to identify what's making a piece glow. I wanted a simple one with the more common, basic ones for now, but I will be adding others in the future, including some that go beyond glass (radium,strontium aluminate, tritium, boron nitride, etc.). I will be making stickers of this chart eventually, and I am planning on opening an online store soon that will have my designs/art(both related and non related to uranium glass) that can be purchased as stickers, shirts, pins, etc. And shipped right to you. Let me know what type of things you would like to see and keep an eye out! ☢️💚

I got so many beautiful gems and beads just in time for Valentine's Day! I've got pink and green faceted beads, which are very rare, as well as some gorgeous heart, oval, marquise, and round gems. They all glow beautifully, and I can't wait to use them! 💚☢️
