Cambridge issued this triple candleholder from 1933 to 1939 as part of the Gadroon pattern, with the crosshatched balls under the candle cups. In 1940 they produced the candleholder without the crosshatching as part of the Caprice pattern. Thus, this is the earlier form, properly known as Gadroon. This triple candleholder has the Minerva etching, very difficult to find on the Gadroon candleholder. The base, candle cup rims, and selected ridges on the candleholder are trimmed in gold. There is only a small bit of wear to the gold on the rim of the base, with none on the rest of the item. The candleholder is 6.25" high and almost 7" across. There are no chips, cracks, flakes, or signs of damage to the glass. This piece is hard to find with the Minerva etching, don't let it get away from you! Please see our additional store listings for a large selection of rare and unusual elegant and depression era candleholders! The shipping price quoted is worst case scenario (to Seattle from Orlando), therefore your shipping will be less the closer you are to me in Florida. Contact: Bruce at Solarbearz@aol.com
