Magnesium Glass Snail-Footed Etched Candy Dish Candle

This elegant Magnesium Glass Snail-Footed Etched Candy Dish, now repurposed as a candle vessel, is a beautiful example of early glassmaking techniques. Crafted from magnesium glass, known for its exceptional clarity and durability, this piece showcases intricate etched designs and a unique tri-footed base. The use of magnesium oxide in the glass mixture not only enhanced its brilliance but also allowed for the creation of fine details, making this dish both functional and artistic.

Candy dishes like this were staples in homes during the mid-century, gracing coffee tables and sideboards to hold sweets or small treats. The three snail-like feet were both decorative and practical, elevating the dish to showcase its intricate craftsmanship while providing stability. This design reflects the era's blend of elegance and functionality, where even everyday items were crafted with care and creativity.

Now given a second life, this timeless piece holds 6.33 oz of wax, filling your space with a warm glow and an enchanting aroma.
