Round Earrings with Black Setting | Uranium Glass | Glows Under UV Light | Flat Circle Jewelry

These round uranium glass earrings have a simple, almost mid-century look, with flat circular glass set in black. The dark setting gives the green glass a nice contrast and keeps the design clean rather than overly decorative.

What makes them interesting to a uranium glass collector is the UV reaction. Under a blacklight, the glass gives off that characteristic bright green fluorescence that uranium glass is known for. In ordinary light, the pieces are much more subtle, with the green color and flat polished surface doing most of the work.

The flat disc shape makes these easy to wear, but the real appeal is in the material. They are the kind of earrings that look fairly understated on their own and then completely change under UV light.

A nice addition to a uranium glass collection, especially for someone who enjoys wearing vintage glass rather than keeping it only in a cabinet. The black setting also makes the fluorescent green stand out particularly well under UV.
