Indiana Glass Company, established in 1907 in Dunkirk, Indiana, became a prominent producer of pressed glass tableware and decorative items. They were known for their wide array of patterns, including many popular Depression-era and mid-century designs. The company's "Tiara" pattern, often referred to as "Tiara Paneled" or "Monarch," was a significant line produced for many years.
This particular pattern features a hobnail-like texture combined with paneled sections, creating a visually rich and tactile surface. Produced in various colors, including the black seen here, these candle holders were designed to be both functional and decorative, fitting into a wide range of home decor styles from the mid-20th century onwards. They are popular among collectors of American pressed glass.
