SIZE
8 in.
DESCRIPTION
Early American blown glass candlesticks are rare for two reason: they never a lot make a lot of them; and they tended to get broken easily. In Sandwich blown and pressed glass you will find maybe 500-1000whale oil lamps for every candlestick. This is a beautiful elegant pair with free blown plinth and candle cups fixed to pressed flint base with wafer glass. Some damage to one (which makes them affordable.)
CONDITION
The one right has a repaired break on one corner. The repair is stable and relatively innocuous. Aside from that bases have the usual rough edges and chips you find with Sandwich flint bases.
