Wilhelm, it's uranium glass. Uranium glass is glass which has had uranium added to the mix before melting. Thanks for the comments

interesting not really up on my chemistry but is uranium glass actually safe is only a small amount mixed its quite intriguing

[Luftwaffegirl]

Oh yes, it's only trace amounts and it is quite safe

[Blued]

Top notch collection. Well done!! Quite the ensemble and variety

[beufighter]

Oh yes, it's only trace amounts and it is quite safe

thank you they do look very good

[Wilhelm]

That must be a very unique and rare piece. Back then(and still now)uranium is not a common substance. I still wonder why? Esp. when they were working on using it for weapons and I believe U-Boot propulsion as well. You have some nice items in your collection.

Finally took apart and cleaned my K98 Mauser with my 1940 original cleaning kit. I'll be making an instructional video on how to disassemble a K98

I like the glass WHW items. Nice collection!

[CM Alexander]

Most glass WHW pieces that are green have trace amounts of uranium in them as it was common to find it in color glass during that time period. The pieces that have this much in them are rare...I have had hundreds and hundreds of green glass WHW pieces and I have only one myself that is like this one here. You'll find a lot that have trace amounts and glow a little bit...but when you have one like this you will know it!

As for safety...I suppose if you kept it in your mouth day in and day out for years it may have some sort of effect...but it is no more dangerous than a feldgendarmerie gorget.
