Key Features
Soft pastel pink color is highly desirable for spring/Easter decor and the 'Grandmillennial' aesthetic. Satin finish provides a premium vintage feel compared to clear glass.

Satin finish is uniform; weight is characteristic of mid-century American glass. Confidence: Medium-High (Fenton is the primary producer of this specific pink satin hue).
Flaws to Note
Dark scuff marks on the base of one holder; may be removable with mild soap or a magic eraser. Residual wax inside the candle cups.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (best for vintage aesthetics) or eBay (best for glass collectors). Facebook Marketplace is good for a quick local sale to avoid shipping risks.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Satin Glass', 'Frosted Pink', 'Deposition Glass Style', and 'MCM Decor'. Clean thoroughly with warm soapy water to remove scuffs and wax before photographing against a dark background to make the pink 'pop'.
