Uranium Pippins - PippIn St Ives And Pippin Carbis Bay Light Up The Way


Pippin St Ives, on the right and Pippin Carbis Bay on the left, (their surnames), light up the night with their Uranium Green 'Vaseline Glass' candle holder and creepy candle.This is an outdoor shot and it was originally quite windy. The wind picked up after 9pm but the day was very overcast and cloudy for June. Luckily we got this photo in quickly when the wind died down a bit. We were outdoors doing some rituals for someone, so it seemed a good idea to have a quick photo of the lovely, adorable Pippins.

Uranium was mined near the areas in Cornwall, UK, the dogs are named after and was used to colour glass green amongst many other things.The percentage of uranium in Vaseline glass is extremely low, around 2%.
