Mid Century Cobalt Blue Tall Bedecked Candlesticks
Mid Century Cobalt Blue Tall Bedecked Candlesticks
Cobalt blue glass, characterized by its deep blue hue, is created by adding cobalt oxide to the glass mixture during the manufacturing process. This vibrant color was first introduced in ancient Mesopotamia around 2500 BCE and later gained popularity in the 19th century as glassmakers sought to replicate the intense blue tones seen in precious gemstones like sapphires. Over time, cobalt blue glass became a favored choice for various decorative and functional items, prized for its rich color and historical significance. These intricately detailed cobalt blue candlesticks from the Mid Century era date back to the 1950s to 1970s.
