Beautiful vintage Indiana Glass Milk Glass hen, also known as the HON is filled with a highly scented natural soy candle.  This dish is highly collected and makes a great gift for just about anyone.  The nostalgia from this piece evokes memories of my grandmother's kitchen.  It is often used as a butter dish or candy dish.  The candle is 100% soy and can easily be cleaned out with soap and hot water, giving this beauty another purpose in your home.   Estimated Time Period Manufactured: 1950-1959.

Option 1;  Filled with hand poured candle of natural soy scented Coconut caramel; rich, buttery top notes which combine with the yummy fragrance signature of maple sugar for a delightful caramel accord. Hints of spice add a warm accent to the caramel, as it balances perfectly with a fresh grated coconut base. Creamed vanilla surrounds the confection with a cloud of sweetness.
Notes:
    Top - Butter Cream
    Middle - Maple Sugar, Spice
    Bottom - Coconut, Vanilla

Option 2; Filled with hand poured candle of natural soy scented Daisy Dreams; reminiscent of walking through a field of daisies basking in the sunshine.
Notes:
    Top – Berry
    Middle – Floral
    Bottom – Musk, Ozone

The Indiana Glass Company produced a Hen-on-Nest covered dish that retained the same basic appearance throughout many years of production. Two sizes were made. The earliest version is smaller, the top portion measuring approximately 4 and 1/2 inches in total length, but very similar in design to the later version, which measures about 7 inches in length. The “nest” (base) of the smaller version measures 4 and 3/8″ from end to end.  This hen is the newer version with Measurements: 5 1/4" H x 7" W

These hens are NEVER marked with an actual trademark or logo representing the company, however, the Indiana Glass hen can easily be recognized at a glance from it’s characteristic form. The tail is narrow and “flat”, pointing straight back from the head, and is never “split” or “divided” as is common on many, many hens made by other glass manufacturers. The cover (“back”) of the dish has a mold “circle” about one and 1/4 inches in diameter (this measurement referring to the larger size hen) in the center, which can basically be considered a diagnostic feature of all Indiana hens. This circle is actually called a “valve mark”.
