Description
A stunning large
Czech amber + uranium green glass candlestick. Made by the
Mstisov glassworks, and designed by
Frantisek Zemek in the 1950's, pattern number
53105. This piece is shown in the 1958 Czech Glass Review, kindly provided online by Jindřich Pařík [

Size
Measures approx 8 inches tall by 5.25 inches in diameter at widest point.
Condition
Excellent condition, no chips or cracks.
