    Description

    For sale here is a RARE pair of Cambridge Heliotrope candle holders that date to the 1920's.  The color Heliotrope (lavender/periwinkle) was only produced for a short time.  Only a few pieces were decorated with gold paint.  Each candle holder is 10" tall, and the glass in each is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks.  The gold paint has worn off in some areas, but for the most part, these are in excellent condition for their age.  I cannot find another pair with the exact same gold decoration anywhere on line.  Like most early Cambridge Glass pieces, neither is marked.  The pair is quite heavy, weighing a little less than 4 lbs.   Please look closely at the photos as they perhaps can better describe this pair than I can using words.  The purple color seems to change depending on the intensity of the light.  For that reason, I have included photos taken both inside and outside.  The color is amazing!!
