Amber Glass Votive Holder

This item is an amber-colored glass votive holder, likely designed for a small candle. It features a rich, translucent golden-orange hue, characteristic of depression glass or early 20th-century molded glasswork. The holder has a scalloped or fluted rim, creating a decorative, undulating edge. The body of the holder exhibits a complex, faceted design with multiple geometric planes, which would refract light beautifully when a candle is lit inside. Specifically, there appear to be rounded, almost bubble-like protrusions or indentations on the interior surface, contrasting with the sharp angles of the exterior facets. The base is sturdy and circular, forming a stable foundation for the relatively small container. The construction method appears to be molded glass, given the uniformity of the facets and the presence of what might be mold lines or seams, though these are not distinctly visible in the provided image crops. The overall condition appears excellent, with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. There are no discernible maker's marks, signatures, or stamps in the visible areas. Based on its style and color, it could date from the Art Deco period through the mid-20th century. The craftsmanship, while mass-produced, is indicative of a quality piece of decorative glassware meant to capture and enhance light.
