Fun Fact · Glass That Glows
Why uranium glass glows green
Glassmakers once added a small amount of uranium to the batch for color. Under a black light, that uranium makes the glass glow a bright green.
Our Nov 19 sale has a glowing pair: a uranium glass centerpiece bowl and Vaseline glass plates. Collectors bring a black light to check.

What Clients Say
★★★★★5.0 on Google · 24 reviews
Every Google review Cardinal has received is five stars.
I had to help my 80-year-old parents downsize from a four-bedroom home to a two-bedroom condo … I spoke with four other companies, and Cardinal was by far the clearest and most transparent about their process and rates. … Our auction was even more successful than we expected.
Im a buyer from here, and the people running this auction house are amazing, I've lived in multiple states as a military family and never come across a company like this … they truly are helpful and organized and set all your items together and ready for you to pick up … they take care of you 😊
What a gem this auction service is! Recently started downsizing and consigned to Cardinal. Working with such professional folks made selling my ‘treasures’ easy. … Give Chris and Jackie a call.. you won’t regret it.
I didn’t think my belongings were good enough for Cardinal, but they came right out, took everything and could not have been more helpful, supportive and kind. … I highly recommend them! Professionally, polite, knowledgeable and extremely helpful! I give them 110%
