Well, I guess I should put in what little I know about this process. I bought a bottle one time because it was sole as irradiated. It also looked dazzling in the pictures and was when I got it. It is a quart whiskey with cut glass quality design in the glass. So I had to assume it has some lead in the glass. The color is a light purple I put in my bow window up in New York in the summer time. After I bought it (and it was like $28.including the shipping - I contacted the seller regarding the process, and he told me that he had done some of them in a sterilizing type piece of equipment. I neglected to ask what type of light was used.
I don't really like faking glass, but when I was traveling the world I saw a lot of old bottles on shed roofs, to get the SCA colorization. I have several fly traps, fishing floats and bottles that are SCA colored. I just looked up here by my computer and noticed a witches ball that is amethyst and neat. RED Matthews
