    just like vaseline glass has uranium in it that makes it glow green - these wares that glow orange are made with cadmium - I know several makers used it in some of their lines including Morgantown

    most colors in glass are achieved with chemicals - ruby glass uses selenium and gold - blue glass uses cobalt - etc...

    Manganese was used in clear glass. It causes sun purpling.
