A nice radiation field coming from a shelf at the local flea market (plates and cups with uranium oxide glaze)

yo i read about those in a book ages ago and i’ve never actually seen what they looked like
Noice! If only they kept the food warm instead of making your hair and teeth fall out…
*3.6 roentgen, not great, not terrible*
How much is bad for you, like what’s the highest acceptable number it should show
Since they are dangerous for eating and drinking perhaps they can be used for little kid’s tea parties!
People using the cup everyday for 30 years: I wonder how I got mouth cancer.
I’d bet someone would pay big money for these.
is that Fiesta Ware?

3.6 roentgen, not great, not terrible.
Fiestaware that was made between the mid 30’s and the mid 70’s is most likely to be radioactive. Although highly desirable and collectable, they are supposedly only harmful if you use the item if it is chipped.
Perfect for helping you lose a few pounds
Hot plate
Vintage Fiestaware. I have a few of these in the house. My mom’s friend in the biology department faculty brought his geiger counter over. Only the orange ones are radioactive.
What units are these, CPM?
What unit of measurement is being displayed here
“Now this is my kind of dish set!!”

Wow. I have some vintage fiestaware, I’ll have to check this! Does it glow under uv light? I’ve been collecting the depression Era uranium Glass (not to eat off of) and it glows. Just wondering if this is the same thing
Can someone who is actually educated on the subject Explain Like I’m 5. Whats going on and give a comparison to something I’m familiar with for the amount of radiation that it’s giving off? Thank you.
We need a banana for scale.
I like that the name of the radiation meter is “Pripyat”
i’ve been told its the equivalent of a chest xray
I feel bad for all the dweebs who dont have their geiger counter at the thrift store
My friends say **casserole** but it is clearly **hot dish**.
Not great, not terrible
Must be graphite on the roof
Who brings a geiger counter to a flea market?

Do I need to buy a Geiger counter before I ever purchase anything ever again?
where is this??????
Oh you found Putins tea set!
Fiesta ware color sometimes referred to as radioactive red.
Am I the only one who thinks we should receive radiation training in school, and Geiger counters more common?
Maybe I’m paranoid, but it’s invisible energy that can kill you, or shorten your life span. And you will NEVER know until you have symptoms, or get a Radiation detector. Just sayin’.
I just watched Threads (1984) last night at the suggestion that it was the most traumatic movie.
So wonderful to see this as a follow-up to that experience.
Okay, but are they microwave safe?
I see you are completing your Fallout 3 Duper-Mart mission.
My Russian is shit but is that Geiger counter brand actually called pripyat?
Like the infamous ghost town outside chernobyl?
It’s not 3 roentgen, it’s 15,000.

3.6 Roentgen
Not great…
Not terrible…
