Vaseline glass

These marbles are made of vaseline glass (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_glass) and SWMBO bought them for some of her training sessions.

The green glow is produced by flourescence in the glass under UV light.

Rather eerie!

Yes quite eerie, but very well done --- Does you good lady coach marble playing, brings back memories, coming up through the village from school playing marbles along the gutter.
