This pair of depression glass candelabras can be just candle sticks or as elaborate as seen in the photos. On the base a silver insert can be seen where the arm with 2 candelabras screws in, or just a candle is inserted. Once that is screwed in, the bobesh is attached with the prisms and then the actual candle holders are attached. It is lovely and I have had it for a very long time. I have a small dining room now and it is just too big to be appropriate. In total here are four prisms missing. The prisms are white, although everything else is yellow. There are no chips, or cracks in the glass. There are a couple of tiny bubbles, like glass from that era. Everyone that has these for sale identifies them as Heisey, and they say they are marked. I cannot find any mark but I am not a depression glass person. I owned them because I liked them. They screw together, glass on glass, fairly snugly and should be very sturdy. One had cardboard stuffed in the candle stick base, which I removed. It was someone's attempt to make the one that wobbled a little more sturdy. There are better ways of doing that. That one is still solid and I think a little piece of wax, felt or cork in the candlestick would make it as rigid as the other. There are no returns so I suggest you contact me with questions because I do not want these shipped back and forth because they are fragile. Any constructive feedback is also welcomed because this is not my area of expertise. We must collect 6% Pennsylvania Sales Use Tax at checkout. Thanks for stopping by!
