Pair of Candlesticks 1860 - 1900

This pair of clear glass candlesticks, dating from the late 19th century, is a fine example of American glassblowing. Each candlestick, with its intricate cut designs, features a bell-shaped cup and a tall, slender base. They were likely crafted by anonymous artisans and are now on display at the Art Institute of Chicago, a testament to the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of American glasswork.
