A pair of Fostoria amber coin glass candlesticks.8” 1956-1986

Fostoria Glass Company was a prominent American glassware manufacturer, established in Fostoria, Ohio, in 1887, and later moved to Moundsville, West Virginia. They were renowned for their high-quality pressed and blown glassware, particularly their colored glass lines, which became highly collectible. The "Coin Glass" pattern, introduced in 1956, featured a replica of an 1892 Morgan silver dollar embedded in the glass, adding a unique decorative element.

This particular amber coin glass candlestick exemplifies the mid-century American glassmaking aesthetic. The combination of the rich amber color, the intricate "coin" detail, and the classic candlestick form makes it a desirable piece for collectors of vintage glassware. These candlesticks were produced as part of a larger collection, often sold as individual pieces or sets, and are appreciated for their decorative appeal and historical significance.
