• Boston and Sandwich

• Petal and Loop

• Crystal; Clear

• Antique Flint, Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG) c. 1840-60

• Measurements: 4 3/8" base diameter and 6 3/4" high

• Weight, prepackaged: 1 lb 2 oz

• Condition: The petals on the candle cup have some minor chipping on the underside, none effecting the shape or easily visible without close inspection. The underside of the base has 3 minor chips, again, nothing distracting or effecting the shape. The stem is attached by wafer to the base (side note: the base was also the sugar lid) and there is a bit of blue colored glass in the wafer. The glass is wonderfully clear and free of cloudiness with a light glow under UV light. The base has fair resonance since it's muted by the wafer connection.
