Mid-Century Fenton Hobnail Milk Glass Candle

This mid-century Fenton Hobnail Milk Glass drinking glass, with its distinctive raised texture and creamy white finish, reflects the charm and craftsmanship that made Fenton one of America’s most beloved glassmakers. Founded in 1905 in West Virginia, the Fenton Art Glass Company became known for its hand-pressed patterns and innovative use of opalescent and milk glass — a style that flourished in the 1950s and 60s as a symbol of everyday elegance.

The hobnail pattern, introduced by Fenton in 1939, quickly became iconic for its tactile design — a playful mix of light-catching texture and timeless appeal. Originally crafted for use at the table or vanity, these pieces are now cherished by collectors for their nostalgic beauty and durability.

Now reimagined as a candle, this vessel has been hand-poured with 3 oz of all-natural soy wax, preserving its mid-century charm while offering a gentle glow through the opaque milk glass.

Dimensions:

• Width: 2.5"

A fragrance as smooth and refined as the vessel itself — crisp elderberry and soft florals grounded in warm wood notes. Once the candle has burned through, the piece can begin its second life as a small vase, tumbler, or timeless display accent.
