Blenko / Royal leerdam amethyst Purple Hurricane Shade Pair Large 17” Candles

About the Item

These are reproductions made for Colonial Williamsburg. Blenko had the contact to make glass for their gift shops from 1939 to 1966, then Royal Leerdham had it from 1966 until very recently; I believe Blenko is now making a very small amount of glass for them again, but whatever the case you will be hard pressed to find a pair this large. Handblown glass with thick irregular rolled bottoms. Photos show slight variation in color but they’re identical color in person. Some bubbles in glass as they’re handblown. Not considered flaws, but part of the glassblowing process. Just a hair above 17” tall. Sold as a set of two.
