Pair of Depression-Era Green Vaseline Glass Candlesticks

A matching pair of vintage candlestick holders crafted from translucent green glass, characteristic of the Depression era. These pieces are likely 'Vaseline Glass' or uranium glass, given their distinctive yellowish-green hue which typically fluoresces under ultraviolet light. Each holder features a wide, circular domed base that provides stability, leading to a multi-tiered baluster-style stem with rounded knops. The candle cup at the top is flared with a thick rim, designed to accommodate standard taper candles. The glass contains minor internal air bubbles (seeds), which are typical of period manufacturing processes. Physically, the items appear to be roughly 4 to 5 inches in height. The craftsmanship reflects mass-produced pressed glass techniques of the early to mid-20th century, specifically the 1930s. Visible condition is good, showing a glossy luster, though there is faint surface wear and possible minor 'flea bites' or tiny chips along the sharp edges of the base and rim consistent with age and use. No significant cracks or major structural repairs are noted. The underside of the bases appears smooth but may exhibit light shelf wear. This style is consistent with manufacturers like Hazel-Atlas, Federal Glass, or Anchor Hocking.
