Here are some pictures of off color glass pieces in my collection taken in total darkness.
The first up is a Stiegel airtwist wine glass. This one is American made as the German and
English versions have ground bottoms where Stiegel made products just had a rough pontil mark.
The glass is 7 inches tall.

Next up is a chalky baby blue Lacy Salt with a Chariot 1825 to 1835. This salt was made at the Boston and Sandwich Glass Company. The detail is amazing on such a small piece which measures 3 and a half inches long by 2 inches wide by 2 inches tall.

Next up is a pressed glass Cup Plate from the New England Glass Company very early Sun Ray Masonic Pattern from 1824 to 1828. The color is opalescent and looks blue in the dark. In Bright sunlight the piece is Fiery orange and in moderate sunlight the glass looks milky translucent white/blue.
