Each piece captures the charm and style of excellent craftmanship.

We have gently (see below) cleaned them and purchased new Glass Columns to enhance their beauty. The 4"x 4", Columns and Candles are included.
The polychrome paint adds depth and beauty. Possibly hand painted.

Beautiful patina, substaintial chippy paint; a strawberry vine design with green leaves, strawberries and a single white strawberry flower. Sturdy tole design, no appearance of repainting or color touch-up. No appearance of broken or missing leaves, strawberries or flowers.


Each white base is round, with gently scalloped edges and the 4 original brackets for holding the glass.

Just in time for that outdoor party, this charming strawberry designed patinaed set, with chippy paint, will be the center point of any table, or sideboard.

Likely made in Italy in the 1960's. There is no label. Condition commensurate with age and outdoor use. Considering their age and the delicacy of the design they are in very good condition.
But please carefully look at the pictures, Clover's Cottage attempted to balance the condition of the paint.....delicate in places, with whether to remove ALL of the "dirt". We think, having substantial experience in this type of Toleware we achieved the correct balance. You should anticipate that an extremely small amount of paint may loosen or fall off in shipping.

Dimensions are as follows:
height: 4.25",
bottom width: 5.5",
diameter with vine decor: 10 ".
Generally, fits a standard tapered 12 "candle. See less
