Twist Bobeche, US Glass   Updated 12/31/2012

These are the only examples of these twisted candleholders that I've seen. They're 9 1/4 inches tall, in vaseline, and sold for $120 at an auction in 2000. These, or a similar pair, sold in 2007 for $195. In 2010 a pair in light marigold sold for $75.

In 2012, two pairs in vaseline with black trim sold for $140 and $150.


In March of 2009, Greg Warhol sent me this photo of his recently acquired Twist Bobeche candleholders in white. He had checked around and could find no others in other collections, although he suspects there must be more. I don't know if they're the same pair, but in late 2009, a set listed as white sold for $275.
