What Is Uranium Glass & Why Is It Called Vaseline Glass?
Uranium glass dates back to the early 19th century, first produced by Josef Riedel in Bohemia (modern-day Czech Republic) in the 1830s–1840s. Uranium oxide was mixed into molten glass to create brilliant yellow-green tones that fluoresce intensely under UV light. Its popularity spread across Europe and America, especially during the Victorian and Art Deco eras.
The name "Vaseline glass" comes from the United States, where early-20th-century collectors noticed that certain pale yellow-green translucent glass resembled petroleum jelly (Vaseline). While all Vaseline glass is a form of uranium glass, not all uranium glass qualifies as true Vaseline glass, the name refers specifically to that signature soft, pale yellow color.
