at first glance these brandy goblets appear to be Vaseline glass (they would glow a vibrant electric green under blacklight) but I knew when I spotted them at the flea market they were way to vibrant without the blacklight and knew that instead of being laced with uranium that they are loaded with cadium which is much more rare - and it makes them glow a very vibrant electric orange under blacklight... very seldom seen

btw - most glass is colored by chemicals - red/ruby glass is usually laced with selenium and gold - dark blue has the chemical cobalt etc etc etc...

Must be nice to have fancy I-talian cars, and relics from the Crusades.

I live in a box, eat puppy chow, beat off dry handed (no lotion) and give all my wealth to the global underprivileged of all ethnicities and faiths.

My only indulgence is to convey a small financial gift to the necro Elite, to witness at the feet of the eternally dead.


:come and get me::come and get me::come and get me::come and get me::come and get me:

Neonknight, the next time you are out here, do you think you can help me identify this item and assertain it's value.
The only thing I know about it is that it is either a woman's face creme or facial powder box or tin/music box made in the USA.
I assume it is anywhere ca. 1920-1950.
I would appreciate any help you can give me.
 
Does the winding key turn? If yes, is there a brake (button\slide) for releasing a spring driven gear inside the tin? if yes, any sound? if yes, what is the sound?

Just curious...
