    I am hoping that someone is able to identify manufacturer and pattern, several types of glass look similar, but not quite right. What the heck are these things. Sorry pics did not load I will try again.

    Wow there must be an easier way to make a photo file smaller.

    My guess is light shade or lamp covers. Beautiful!

    Dimensions?

    They look like old decorative candle jars from the '60s.

    Thank you cluttered closet. The measurement are approx 7"high X 19"circumference X 4" opening.
    Welcome Terry. Thanks for wading in. Gives me another example avenue to explore. I have spent days trying to find these, nice to have some help.

    I think they are as well. This gives me something to focus on. I have spent a rediculous amount of time trying to find info. Thanks Johnny and everyone else

    Thanks for the measurements. 4" inch would be the right size for a fitter to hold the shade.

    Honeycomb may be the wrong search word.
    Lattice or bubbled lattice might be better.

    The top does not look like it would hold in a fitter

    The bottom was not made to be seen

    19 inches is awfully wide for a vase , isn't it ?

    Do you think it could be a lamp base?

    The inside of the bottom of the piece looks like a votive width candle would fit perfectly. The height would be about right for a narrow pillar.

    Or maybe they're vases?

    Maybe. I just don't know.

    I doubt light shades. There are no vents. These would crack in no time if over a bulb or heat source and can't vent the heat.

    I also think they're missing lids.
