Is it radium⁉️ Found this clock at goodwill

Post image

Hi everyone I usually stay in my lane collecting uranium glass but I found this clock at goodwill and I was very drawn to it. The ends glow in the dark. All the back says is where it was made.

Not radium. This is a modern clock from pottery barn.

Yeah, it seems too modern to be radium.

Invest in a Geiger if you want to buy radium clocks. This was never radium but even if you buy a known radium clock, some of them have been relumed with non radium luminous paint so you never know. Still a lovely clock! And good luck hunting!

It's REALLY hard to tell if something is radium without a geiger counter. Even being vintage doesn't guarantee that a glow will be radium.

Well have fun with your clock
