    This candelabra belonged to an Episcopalian minister and his wife. They had five children. Each night the children would light their candlestick and carry it to their rooms. The light is in mint condition and one of my favorites.. especially since the story was saved. Also I've included a picture of my American Glass Spillvase in a Pairpoint quad plated holder.

      It's always nice when you find treasures with a story behind them but I don't think I would entrust those beautiful candlesticks to my children for more than a few minutes

      LOL Dottie now that is a GREAT comment !! I bet, by his being a preacher, he put the fear of God in them if they broke them! Also, I bet the glass shades are replaceable. Thanks for the good laugh. Michael
