    Hello Board Friends - so I've been encouraged to jump on the uranium glass fad by my antique mall. I said I would see what could find at home. I shined a black light around my cabinets and these little pieces were glowing. The taller vase is about 3 7/8" tall and the shorter pinched vase is 3 1/2" tall. The pinched vase has a bottom that feels like fine sandpaper. The taller piece is marked as shown. Bohemian? Any help would be much appreciated. Don

    First impression is Japan on the left, Bohemian on the right.
    Do they glow green? You usually see a touch of yellow in the glass, on my screen they look pure white. Aside from the bottom of the one, do they feel like pure satin to the touch, or a little rougher?
    Acid washed versus sandblasted.

    Yes, there is a touch of yellow. I just have never been very good at capturing certain colors in my photos. Both glow green but not as strongly as other uranium pieces I have. The taller piece has a slightly rougher texture than the pinched piece. The pinched piece looks a bit waxy, if that makes any sense.
