Title: airtwist stem candlestick
Post by: josordoni on October 18, 2007, 02:06:58 PM

This is an odd looking piece - the proportions are ungainly, and the glass is rather thick and lumpy.  The foot is folded, but upwards rather than downwards as I have seen before, and there is a snapped pontil to the underside. 

Height is approx 7.5 ins 190 mm.

Any help with age and possible country of origin would be wonderful.

Probably Portugese. Very similar imported by Weil in US at $5 a pair
