| Information on Candlewick by Imperial Glass |
| Candlewick was made by Imperial Glass Company between 1936 and 1982. The president of Imperial Glass Co purchased a piece of French glass. He took the piece to the factory and had his employees develop a mould. This new glass had glass balls on the edges. Imperial then decided to name the glass pattern Candlewick after a colonial sewing technique that also had balls along the edges. Candlewick became a household name among American women. Candlewick became Imperial’s most extensive line. There are over 700 items in this line. Parts of this article were taken from Candlewick: The Crystal Line by Myrna and Bob Garrison.
