Bluenique Space Age Candle Holder
Stunning Viking Art Glass Bluenique ultra modern candle vase. Unique! This vintage space age candle holder was blown into a mold, then hand-formed using thick, lovely glass in Viking’s patented “Bluenique” color. It holds a full-length taper candle.
The space age candleholder was made in 1959. Viking Art Glass began in 1901 in New Martinsville, West Virginia, USA, as the New Martinsville Glass Company. In 1944 the company was renamed Viking Glass. Their use of color in their glassware was what they became known for. Their line include everything from glass for the boudoir and lamps, to smoking and liquor sets, and included tableware and decorative art glass designs.
In the late 1950’s, Viking featured modern shapes and designs, such as this line. It was shown in the “Gift and Art Buyer”, August 1959.
This triangle shaped candleholder is in excellent condition. It is large, measuring 11″ tall, 4.5″ wide and weighs 2.5 lbs.[color-box]More About Viking Art Glass[/color-box]
