Unbranded (Style of Pier 1 or HomeGoods) · Art & Decor > Candle Holders
Era / Decade
2010s (Contemporary)
Material
Glazed ceramic with a reactive drip glaze finish; mid-weight density.
Condition
Good. The glaze appears intact with no visible major cracks, though the environment suggests light dust and potential micro-chips at the square edges which are common for mass-market ceramic decor.
Demand Level
Moderate. Teal home decor remains popular, but the market for mass-produced ceramic candle holders is saturated.

Description
A set of three graduated-height candle holders featuring a modern wavy, sculptural silhouette. Finished in a deep teal reactive glaze with earthy brown and tan drip highlights near the shoulders. The square pedestal tops are designed to hold standard pillar candles. Perfect for a mantel or dining table centerpiece.
Key Features
Trio set (value is in the set), trendy reactive glaze finish, sculptural 'wavy' mid-century modern inspired shape, versatile teal/earth-tone color palette.
Authenticity Indicators
No visible maker's marks or stamps; likely featured a paper 'Made in China' sticker originally. Confidence level in being non-designer decor: High.
Flaws to Note
Potential for 'cold' chips on the sharp square corners of the bases or tops; dusty from storage. These are mass-produced decorative items rather than studio pottery.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace or local flea market is best to avoid shipping costs/breakage risk. Otherwise, eBay or Mercari for nationwide reach.
Selling Tips
Price the set at $20 for a quick sale. Use keywords like 'MCM style,' 'Reactive Glaze,' and 'Teal Blue' in the title. Take photos against a neutral, clean background to elevate the look from 'garage find' to 'boutique decor.' Bundle them together; they are much harder to sell individually.
