Each piece features a cylindrical mug body, substantial molded base, paneled lower section and applied-style molded handle. The compact approximately 2-inch form was produced as novelty barware and can function as a shot glass, tasting glass, miniature beer mug or toothpick holder.
All four glasses exhibit a strong bright green fluorescence under ultraviolet light, as documented in the included UV photographs. Because clear vintage glass can fluoresce from different glass additives, these are being accurately represented as UV-reactive glass rather than conclusively identified as uranium glass without additional wavelength-specific confirmation.
Professional visual inspection shows the four pieces remain in good vintage condition. Light surface wear and minor manufacturing characteristics consistent with molded vintage glass may be present. Review the close-up photographs for rims, handles, interiors and bases as they form part of the condition description.
Sold together as the complete matching set of four shown.
