Fenton #680 Emerald Crest Candlestick Pair — Milk Glass with Green Edge, c.1949–1955

A charming pair of vintage Fenton candlesticks, model #680, from the Emerald Crest line produced between 1949 and 1955. These mid-century American glass pieces are crafted from classic white milk glass and finished with a vibrant green ruffled edge — the signature of the Emerald Crest series (originally called “Green Crest” in its first production year).

Each candlestick features a flared, scalloped base and a rounded candle cup designed to hold standard 1-inch taper candles. The crisp contrast between the opaque milk glass body and the hand-applied green edge highlights Fenton’s attention to decorative detail and quality craftsmanship.

Sought after by collectors, these pieces are increasingly rare in matched sets and in such clean, undamaged condition — perfect for vintage table settings or display in a curated collection.
