I Made Figurines Out Of Uranium Glass (24 Pics)

ADVERTISEMENT

Crafted with care from uranium glass, these figurines of octopuses, spiders, grasshoppers, bees, snakes, slugs, rats, and scorpions glow with a captivating green hue under UV light. Don’t worry, uranium glass is perfectly safe when handled correctly.

As the creator, I infuse each piece with a love for both art and nature. Every figurine, meticulously shaped by hand, celebrates the diversity and wonder of the animal kingdom. From the graceful tentacles of the octopus to the delicate wings of the bee, each detail is a testament to the beauty of life.

These figurines offer more than just aesthetic appeal. They serve as reminders of the interconnectedness of all living beings and the importance of biodiversity. Display them proudly as symbols of creativity and reverence for the natural world.

In a world often filled with the ordinary, these glass figurines stand out as extraordinary treasures, inviting us to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.

Your figures are great, but any claim that ANYTHING containing ANY isotope of Uranium is "safe" when handled correctly is HIGHLY suspect. People who want to SELL uranium are very likely to make this claim. Over time, surfaces erode and dust happens- then the dust is inhaled or ingested- and cancer is a very possible outcome. Is it safe today? Maybe. Is it safe 20 years from now? Almost certainly NOT. There are many other chemistries available that can provide this sort of fluorescence - much less problematic.
