Title: Modern Or Art Deco Canldestick
Post by: Ming on September 26, 2006, 07:39:23 PM

Hi everybody
l have a 7" high light green coloured candlestick. No mark. Very smooth surface.
Is it modern or art deco?

The shape reminds me of Art Vannes, but I'd have expected it to be acid etched...and more likely in clear glass...not much help really eh?   :roll:

I'm pretty sure this is fairly contemporary. I see them in crystal quite often. I should know who made it, but I'm drawing a blank.

Hi, this one is shown in "Glass Candleholders of the Depression era and beyond" by Riggs and Pendergrass. Unfortunately all they say about it is that it is German. No dates or anything else, sorry. Terry
