History: An unusual mid-century blown glass candleholder, modelled in a neoclassical column form with a wide flanged rim and rounded base. The standout feature is a floating coloured glass marble encased within the hollow shaft—a decorative and whimsical inclusion that hints at studio craftsmanship. Likely produced in the 1950s–1970s as part of the revivalist interest in Victorian scientific and apothecary-style glassware. Standing approximately 22.5 cm tall, this piece makes a unique addition to a table setting or eclectic glass collection.
