<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 450401, member: 36"]I know the really radioactive uranium glass tends to be old, and these are probably Depression era. The glass glows bright green under blacklight; I don't think I can get a picture of that unfortunately, but they'd be the best thing ever at a rave. (if anyone goes to raves any more) They were just restrung, so the cord is in good shape know and they've been hand-knotted for good measure. Currently their baggie resides in a seriously old pewter coffee pot, just in case, since the old pewter had a high lead content.
