r/manganeseglass

Solarization for 2026 😎

Put the glass back out for this year's round of solarization now that the nights are 40° or higher, some of it is looking pretty good :)

I think it’s Empoli but missing its lid. And it’s gorgeous 🥰 FYI, the glow pic is under 365 light so I think it’s manganese. Not much glow under 395.

I bought a double pickle castor thinking I was going to replace the inserts. Always ask for measurements 😅. It's about 1/4" too small for my vaseline inserts, and that made me sad but the amount of detail in the frame, lid, and even the glass made me want to keep it. I love the toning too. Part of the collection now!

The Queen jar almost looks Uranium and the Silver City poppy cabaret surprised me. I actually bought it without even checking because it was so cheap.

Does anyone know what the pattern on the pitcher is called? I looked on EAPG id site, but couldn't find it.

I love these little wine glasses from the 1800s. The stems are amethyst manganese glass and the cups are vaseline/uranium. It's rare to find purple and uranium together.

This is one of those pieces where I didn't really care about spending too much for manganese glass 😂. I wish it was one of their fancier uranium pieces, but I have a hard time spending $200 on a paperweight. I love the scales!
