This is a specialized glassblowing technique where a "double helix" of air is carefully enclosed within the solid glass stem. While it looks like a physical glass coil, it is a decorative effect created during the manufacturing process. Each piece has a bell-shaped cup and a circular footed base. The hand-blown glass reflects mid-century modern design with a minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic.

These candlesticks are both functional and collectible, illustrating the technical skill of mid-20th-century art glass while maintaining clean, understated lines suitable for display. See less
