Norm,
I have seen this type of 'carnival' style glass being made, what they do
is heat the glass up (such as a vase or wine glass) to dull red, and dip
it into a fine powdered metallic salt, (such as cobalt or stannus
chloride, or even uranium salts) depending on the colour(s) required
they also
I know that old glass bottles (besides going purple) will also develop a
metallic rainbow patina from being exposed to UV radiation and weak acids,
as they might encounter after years in a dump. Considering that tektites
have been around for thousands of years longer than man-made glass, it's

I agree that we should compliment each other Al, but history has shown what
can happen in cases where we do not, and science wins. Why? Because this
isn't about us and our collections, it is bigger than us and if we act
irresponsibly than action will be taken...as it has before regarding
fossils.

Adam, you mean like a couple of days ago you alluded that you might have a

I don't think so...
