Rande Bly of Birmingham, Alabama asks

Can someone help me please. I have tested my piece of what is being called Antique Green and it is glowing brightly from uranium content. Could someone please test a piece of this color with a black light and let me know if theirs is glowing also. This is a bright “apple green” color that looks like Jolly Rancher sour apple candy. This shade of color is known to the depression glass dealers as Vaseline apple green

You can double check this color from a search of Antique Green at the Steuben Club web site.
