^^ More of Grandma's colored glasses... this one's a little glass of some sort, has the same designs as some of the plates so I think it belongs with them.

< Collector of that kinda glass. It's a type of glass from the 20's and 30's called Vaseline Glass. It contains small amounts of Uranium -238 inside to give it that wonderful colour. More info can be seen here mate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_glass
If you get a black light you can find out if it truly is. There are some imitations from that time period so do not be disappointing if it isn't actually that type. Any old halloween black-light will do. Or if you have access to a Geiger counter and set it to millisieverts it should tick at it.
