Hi Everyone! I am Amy, one of the Moderators here at Secondhandsquad.net. Part of that role is to assist with any questions you may have, so fire away! I am from Columbus, Ohio and love thrifting and perusing our local antique stores! I enjoy pieces that remind me of my grandparents and love the hunt of finding unique treasures to bring into my home. While I love the reselling business, I find my joy in giving new life to old pieces and sharing that with others.
The Fenton Art Glass Company made glassware like this in Williamstown, West Virginia, starting in the early twentieth century. They produced these pieces to satisfy a growing demand for decorative table accessories in traditional and vintage home styles. Workers made them by pressing molten white glass into patterned iron molds to create the raised bumps and ruffled edges.
People used them in their dining rooms and living rooms to hold tapered candles during evening meals and gatherings. They sat on dining tables, sideboards, and fireplace mantels as both functional lighting and ornamental displays. Their popularity gradually faded as electric lighting became universal and interior design tastes shifted toward modern minimalism.
