Updated values and text revisions have been made to this popular
and thorough guide to Candlewick crystal, one of the most popular
lines of glass produced by the Imperial Glass Corporation of
Bellaire, Ohio, which was introduced in 1936 and manufactured until
the company's closing in 1984. Today this pattern, made in crystal
and many lovely colors, attracts avid collectors of fine glassware.
In this beautifully photographed and updated book, nearly every
item in the crystal line is shown and discussed. The author and her
late husband, Bob, carefully researched Imperial's factory records,
catalogs, and price lists to assemble extensive background
information on these exclusively crystal Candlewick items.
Organized in easy-to-use categories, the book covers place
settings, serving pieces, sets, and miscellaneous items such as
ashtrays, candleholders, compotes, and vases. To further help with
identification, some undocumented pieces, reproductions, and
similarities are shown as well. Measurements for all of
Candlewick's stem and tumbler lines are included. In this new third
edition, the primary focus is on updated values that are included
in the captions and in an overall price guide organized by mold
number. This book is an essential reference for Candlewick
collectors and all who enjoy beautiful glass. According to
collectors, the photographs are an outstanding feature of the book.
A separate companion volume by the authors presents the colored and
decorated lines of Candlewick.
