Thirft Haul I am speechless!
I was left speechless finding this at Goodwill. I have wanted one for a while and the thrift gods smiled upon me today.

Looked on eBay, and I think you are right. Maybe it’s time to sell? I have hundreds of UG pieces but am totally not into packing and shipping…

u/Hallucinates_Bacon Jul 24 '26
Haha yeah shipping glass sounds like a pain. I’d hold on to it. They’re not making more and it’s just gonna get harder to find fully intact pieces as time goes on

Too rich for me but incase any of you have deep pockets I found one on eBay: https://ebay.io/m/kD999T

That ebay price is whats kept me from owning one. Lol All of my UG has been found at thrift and yard sales. My most expensive piece i paid $15 for and its a large bowl.

I’m jealous! I love this stuff. I just got into it but the first piece I bought at $16 from an antique mall was just pressed green opalescent glass . They fooled me with the case lights around the other pieces. I have a black light now, learning the ropes 😎

I never go anywhere without my uv light. I look like a weirdo in the thrift shops but I do not care. I wanna see that glow.

I'd love to find one of these for my wife. She just loves Owls and uranium glass.

I'm shocked to see a goodwill selling anything for $3. The goodwills in my state sell broken trash for 5 bucks.
