Trumpet-shaped “cups” sit atop curvaceous columnar pillars ending in flat wide plate bases. Being handcrafted, height and shape vary a bit. Glass is tinted in a shimmering shade of copper which depending on lighting, changes in intensity and hue. Together the set weighs 4 lbs. 4 oz. and measures as follows:

Tallest: 18” x 5¾” x 3½” H/D/W
Mid-Size: 17¾” x 5½” x 3½” H/D/W
Shortest: 15” x 5¾” x 3¾” H/D/W

Medium is copper tinted blown glass with attached “cups” and bases; faint swirl pattern is visible within the pillars. There are random occlusions within the “cups” and bases, not unusual in glass and original to the manufacturing process. In overall excellent condition with age-appropriate wear. Of note, there are also a few faint surface scratches and one of the "cups" nods a bit lower to one side, none of which detracts from the beauty and utility of the trio (see photos 7, 8, 10 & 11). Topped by decorative topiaries, orbs or spheres rather than candles, the modern elegant look-and-feel will complement most any décor style. A great way to add a little verve in any space!
