Glidden Candle Holder

Glidden Pottery. The cnndle holder sits on top of a #21 bowl.

First time I've run across this shape in the wild.

Re: Glidden

This is a neat piece. I'll bet most of these two-piece candleholders have been separated through the years making them very difficult to find.

Re: Glidden

I'm thinking yes.  It's a candle holder and flower frog.  But, holes could be used for those Danish tapered candles, I suppose.
