Glass collection to be displayed

A collection of uranium and Vaseline glass will be displayed 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday at Peabody Museum. The pieces are owned by Patty Traxson and Bonnie Shaw. They will be displayed in several places around the museum and will be illuminated by ultraviolet light.

Uranium glass, made with uranium dioxide, glows bright green under a black light. Vaseline glass also contains uranium but has a distinctive yellow color. It is sometimes called “canary glass.”

Treat bags will be given to children who attend.
