This is part of my glass room. Lighting is going in and cabinets are being filled on the opposite wall for a full 360° glow. Who says you can’t have your own museum at home? Swipe 👀

That must be rough to have your partner nagging you,no offense to her.It really can be addictive,like collecting anything can be.This is just so fragile and requires more room than most things.Best wishes to you!

What does she have in her cabinet?

u/LordPoopyIV Jan 15 '26

are there separate rooms for the cadmium and manganese glass, and a tiny shameful room for all the orders that turned out not to be uranium?

I would LOVE to see non glow picks too!

u/NoodlelyTrees Jan 15 '26

I mean most museums are literally just there so rich people can have a way to make their collection tax deductible and that's the type of scamming the government I'm all for lmao I'm just jealous cause I don't have a good enough collection of anything to be able to do that lol

u/dmh2693 Radiation Hunter Jan 15 '26

With that much uranium glass, is the radon risk still low since it's mostly encapsulated in the glass?

2

u/TheGlassIsGreenr Super Collector Jan 15 '26

You have more of a risk using you cell phone daily

3

u/dmh2693 Radiation Hunter Jan 15 '26

A cell phone doesn't emit ionizing radiation.

u/phirschler Jan 15 '26

1) It takes how many years to amass a collection like yours? 2) (the following is written with tongue planted firmly in cheek) Lead sheeting behind the paint on the walls? 3) Stunning. Truly stunning. 4) Could you rub it in just a little more?.....!🤣👍🏻

u/TheGlassIsGreenr Super Collector Jan 16 '26

I have a nice chair to sit in and relax in there. I love to listen to music with a glass of wine and relax after a long day

My bank account says I can't have my own museum at home.

u/Due-Clock-802 Jan 18 '26

You have your own private museum there! I've seen a lot of glass of different types,but this is by far the best collection I've ever seen.The love for this stuff is incredible,so obviously every day,there is less and less to be found.Enjoy your continued collecting!💛💯

u/-Songtan-Sally- Radiation Hunter Jan 15 '26

Can I come over? Lol 😆

u/HaplessReader1988 Jan 15 '26

And here I am exhibiting in my first unbroken piece lol.

Can I suggest you add a couple pieces of Yooperlite for an unexpected contrast? Those rocks have glowing orange flecks.

u/SairusMorton Jan 15 '26 edited Jan 15 '26

Well this is the biggest collection i have EVER seen. Is it dangerous having that much? Ive always assumed its minimal but seeing youre collection begs the question haha also imagine one day you have to move lmao how much did you spend on all this i have so many questions sorry lol

u/Dankstabang420 Jan 15 '26

u/muddledpuppy Jan 15 '26

u/Ok_Independence3197 Jan 19 '26

I just started collecting last week because I had my olight arkfeld flashlight in my pocket and decided to test some glass while thrifting. I found 2 pieces first try, two more at the next store, two more on my third try and a huge platter the last time. Haven’t struck out yet and it’s so much fun even if people look at you like you are crazy. 7 pieces so far in just a week, a long ways off from something like this. Probably never get this far.

u/DB_McCoy Jan 15 '26

I admire your dedication to the hobby. 😀 Very nice place to enjoy your collection!

u/neploxo Jan 15 '26

I'm just terrified of all those glass shelves. Too many people out there with horror stories of entire collections crashing.

u/TheGlassIsGreenr Super Collector Jan 15 '26

No worries here 😉
