BRILLIANT CUT GLASS CANDLESTICKS, 10” HIGH, C. 1905
CLAPPERTON, CANADIAN, PAIR OF BRILLIANT CUT GLASS CANDLESTICKS, 10” HIGH, CIRCA 1905
ITEM NUMBER: PFTP001114
PRICE: $950.00
This Fabulous Pair of Brilliant Period Cut Glass Candlesticks were possibly cut by Clapperton, of Desoronto, Ontario approximately 1905. The blanks are quite possibly those of the Libbey Co. of Ohio, USA. Clapperton did import many of his blanks from this factory. After all, this is the factory where he apprenticed at the beginning of his cut glass career prior to 1905. Each candlestick measures 10” Height with a rayed base that measures 4 1/2" Diameter. The pattern consists of hobstars, strawberry diamond and geometric cutting. The stems are zipper cut. Each is exquisitely cut with great clarity of blank.
COMMENT: Brilliant Cut Glass Pairs of Candlesticks of Good Quality, Cut & Design, are prized by collectors and are difficult to find.
CONDITION: One is in BTEF condition whereas the other has suffered damage at the top as is illustrated in the photo. It has been badly chipped and the pieces have been glued.
SIDE NOTE: Please forgive the poor clarity of the photos; better photos will be uploade at a later date or upon request.
When pricing this set of candlesticks, scarcity and condition were taken into consideration. There is no charge for the damaged one. As a pair, I have seen them priced as much as $2500.00 US with this quality of cutting. Therefore we have priced them accordingly basing the value on the mint condition one, and have priced it substantially lower than if the price was divided by 2. It is possible by traveling around and checking the net to be able to find an exact match.
