Vintage FTDA Amber Glass Lace Edge Pedestal Candle

This exquisite Vintage FTDA 1981 Amber Glass Lace Edge Rectangle Pedestal has been beautifully reimagined as a luxurious candle vessel. Featuring an intricate lace edge, a rich amber hue, and an elegant pedestal base, this piece embodies the charm and craftsmanship of vintage glassware. Created by FTDA (Federal Trade Development Association) in the early 1980s, this vessel reflects a timeless design that was often used for decorative serving pieces or elegant centerpieces.

Originally designed as a compote or decorative dish, pieces like this were cherished for their ability to blend functionality with ornate beauty. Amber glassware, popular throughout the mid-20th century, was valued for its warm, golden tones and its ability to cast a soft, glowing light. The lace edge detailing, a hallmark of vintage craftsmanship, enhances the vessel’s delicate yet bold aesthetic.

Now repurposed, this one-of-a-kind vessel holds 12.3 oz of hand-poured soy wax, transforming it into both a functional candle and a timeless keepsake.

Dimensions:

• Height: 4.25"
• Width: 7.25"

This unique candle seamlessly merges the rich history of FTDA’s amber glass craftsmanship with the comforting, nostalgic aroma of Very Vanilla, making it an elegant gift or a treasured addition to any home. Once the wax has fully burned, the vessel can be repurposed as a trinket dish, jewelry holder, or decorative centerpiece, continuing its legacy of beauty and function.
