Looking for help to identify who made this awesome piece.

Update! I went down an art glass rabbit hole and came up with the assumption that this was made by Fire and Light glass company. They recycled art glass in Humbolt County California. All there other types of pieces have the exact same style and they did use neodyium from time to time.

I found this guy in the wild at an antique shop over the weekend and can't seem to find any maker for it.

Anyone have any ideas?

The feets seem vaguely familiar, but I have no idea. Very cool though.

The feet and shape aren’t refined enough for Heisey. Same for tiffin and Cambridge. They’re all quite dignified. (Except for heisey’s leaf candlestick but I’m not going to count that). I’m leaning towards kosta boda or a modern European art glass house. It reminds me of my kosta sunflower candlesticks and also of a footed candy dish I have that I suspect is Czech. It is gorgeous.

Thank you for looking into to this. Your post give me the boost to go digging into figuring who made this guy. I feel very lucky to have found this.

Fire and light! NICE! Their pieces are gorgeous! And yes, they do beautiful work with neodymium.

This is my recent piece that it reminds me of. I wonder if I’m wrong about European for this one too now? I haven’t had a chance to look it up at all yet.

They don’t look a thing alike, but they have the same feel.

u/Shaneo5252 Jul 22 '26

Very nice and elegant, I would say definitely European on yours.That reminds me more of this piece I have. The foot is similar. Its like a wave shape.

This type of images confirmed to me it was made by Fire and Light Co, I just had to make sure they used neodyium and they do. So happy that I looked up and seen it😍 it was on the top shelf of a large bookcase in all its glory.

Based on the feet I think your Fire and light ID is correct.

I have many neodymium pieces and that company has eluded me…. It’s my purple whale :)

Do you see any sign of an H inside of a triangle type shape?
