990 candlestick chimney

USA, 1952

For as common as the 990A candlestick is, the 990 chimney is difficult to find.

Found on January 29, 2005 in Burnsville, MN.

Scott said: The shape was first produced in 1952, but Blenko is best dated by the color. Without seeing the piece in person it is quite difficult to tell the difference between certain shades, since so many colors were produced.
