Vintage Amber Pressed Glass Candle Holder or Compote, Swirled Pedestal Design

This richly textured amber pressed glass piece is a glowing example of vintage craftsmanship. Standing at 15.5 centimetres tall with a 14 centimetre diameter bowl, it balances charm and versatility in equal measure. With its flared, shallow bowl and swirled pedestal stem, it can be styled as either a dramatic single-stem candle holder or a petite compote for dried blooms, seasonal fruit, or decorative objects.

The vibrant amber hue adds a pop of vintage colour while still pairing beautifully with earthy palettes and neutral interiors. The pressed glass swirls catch the light wonderfully, giving the surface a tactile quality and sculptural depth. There's a slight playfulness to the form, with its almost goblet-like proportions and fluted base, a lovely reminder that vintage doesn't have to take itself too seriously.

Whether placed on a mantle, dressing table or shelf, this is a piece that draws the eye and invites curiosity. Ideal for layered styling alongside other coloured glassware, or as a standalone accent to elevate a vignette.

In very good vintage condition with some small natural irregularities to the glass surface typical of older pressed glass. A joyful, multipurpose piece with plenty of styling potential.
