I posted this one before. Brinton & Broadus Philadelphia, P.A. I found out it too is fluorescent green under U.V. light. Very bright.

Some of the bottles that fluoresce like this are coated on the outside (to bring back some of the shine). Not saying this one was-just wanted to bring it up.

I believe polyurethane and similar products do. The glass glows as does the marble which is a yellower color than the bottle. Codd bottles, the way they operate, the marble being a higher melt temp so it can be put in a molten bottle without sticking. Would love to see one of them made. Old school you know . Very interesting I think. Thanks for your thoughts buddy.
