This is a really nice vaseline topaz stretch glass candle holder featuring the pattern "#
318
" made by the Fenton Art Glass Company of Williamstown, West Virginia, circa early 1920s.
The vaseline/uranium candle glows under ultraviolet light (UV365).
{Vaseline/Uranium glow under UV365 in daylight}
Excellent condition.  No chips, cracks, or restorations. The pattern is well-articulated, the iridescence is strong and unmarred and the onion skin stretch effect is really nice.
There are the usual internal air bubbles and straw marks (shearing and crimping tool marks) commonly associated with the hand manufacturing of old carnival, opalescent, stretch, and EAPG.  Each piece of this old fabulous glass is unique, no two pieces are identical.
