Two
Satin Blue Candle Holders
Ribbed, Haldeman
Two satin blue candle holders, with ribbed sides and rims. The best guess on the eBay PGP board was that these were made by Haldeman (California pottery).
Each measures about 3 inches wide and 2 inches high at the tips. Both show medium crazing (visible in the photos at right), but there are no other flaws (no chips, cracks, flakes, or hairlines) except those original to manufacture and visible in the photos (such as firing marks on the bottom) that I can find.
Both pieces are unmarked. Price: $12.00.
