I can’t recall where I picked this candlestick up.  The colour is what caught my eye.  It is a pretty, deep green.  Not emerald, not lime, but some bright shade in between.

When I first bought it I only had one candlestick reference book.  But I was inspired to add to my single collection and have since acquired four others.  I highly recommend the 3 volumes of the ‘Glass Candlestick Book’ series by Tom Felt, and Elaine and Rich Stoer.

I find it challenging to identify these columnar candlesticks.  There are so many variations.  In fact in the Felt et al. book lookalikes for this piece are identified as having been made by Heisey, Lancaster and Westmoreland.

However I have been am confident that this is Jeannette Glass and was part of their console set #26-97.

I picked up a pair of these 2 light candlestick holders locally.  I’d never seen anything quite like them and had to turn to Facebook (I think) for help IDing the pair.  Someone responded within minutes.

This interesting article about this pattern – Indiana Glass Company`s  Willow (aka) “Oleander” by Leonette A. Walls, Ed. D. Updated 12/03 – is a good read if you want to learn more.

S. Reich & Co. Amber Glass Candle Holder – Viktoria Pattern

I have been posting the pretty amber pieces I bought recently at Twindmills.  This candlestick was included in the purchases.  Again I had no idea of its provenance, but I was attracted to its deep, rich dark amber colour.

I posted it on the Vintage Glass Identification Facebook site and it took no time until someone posted an ID.  I would never have found it in a million years otherwise.

Turns out that it was made by S. Reich & Co.  According to the Cloud Glass Reference Site:

“S Reich & Co was founded in 1813 by Samuel Reich in  the town of Krasna, Czechoslova.”

The Glass Message Board has posted a number of the company’s catalogues.

The Facebooker who identified this piece also advised that this candlestick was part of a trinket set and kindly provided this link to the line of Viktoria products.  From this site I learned that…”The Viktoria set was introduced between 1925 & 1930 and is shown in the 1930 and 1934 Reich catalogues.”

I know very, very little (really nothing!) about European glass and am lucky that others share their knowledge.
