Art Deco 1926-1970 New Martinsville Janice pattern Janice 2-lite candleholders
Art Deco 1926-1970 New Martinsville #4536 Janice pattern Janice 2-lite candleholders:
Though I normally post and sell more Midcentury glassware, I could not pass up picking up this set of stunning Art Deco candleholders by a great American glass company which is no longer in business. It is interesting to note that in the "Midcentury" period, there was still an enormous amount of more "elegant glass" being produced by great American companies such as Fostoria, Tiffin, Cambridge, Heisey, Duncan & Miller, New Martinsville, and more. Typically this glass was also available in a full set of dinnerware, serving pieces, and accessory pieces as well. Growing up, each of my aunts had their "pattern" of "good glass" which normally was only used for special occasions. Many of those sets had companion pieces such as console bowls and candleholders.
For every person who was buying "modern" glass in the 1950s, there was an equal even probably greater number of people buying these more formal glasses, now referred to in the antique trade among glass dealers and collectors as "elegant glass".
They are in excellent vintage condition and ready for their next home.
Circa: 1926-1970
Manufacturer: New Martinsville Glass Company / Viking Glass

set 5 Fostoria American ftd 2056 sherbets
This set of Fostoria American sherbets has two which still have the original Fostoria paper label on them. I will leave the cleaning of those two up to you. The other three went through the dishwasher and are now sparkling and ready for your home.
This is the 3 5/8 inch tall sherbet which holds 5 ounces. It is footed and slightly flared at the top. I am not an expert in this pattern and hope to pass these along to a collector or dealer as I bought them extremely reasonably.
The price is for the set of five. Go green! Save resources and purchase a piece of America's past. Sturdy, dependable, dishwasher-friendly, it is ready for your home today.
Circa: 1915-1986
Manufacturer: Fostoria Glass Company
