    Hello again,
    I don't know what this is, but it was pretty enough to buy at a recent estate sale.
    At first I thought it was a ring holder, then some type of candleholder......
    now I'm clueless.
    It's lovely, with very attractive hand painted and gold adornments
    Unfortunately there isn't a mark on the bottom,
    Any guesses what it might be, or perhaps you know what it is?

    Thanks and Happy week to all,
    Tonino

      I think you might be right with the candle idea, Tonino.
      The cover would work well and has the same conical form of a candle snuffer.
      As such a clever piece of early design.
      No marks?
      English?
      Copeland?

      Kevin & Tony you're both awesome! Thanks for the love
      and Kevin, thanks for the comment, I think you're right about it's use as a candleholder.
      I'll see if I can find anything to compare it to.
      Good night to you Good day

      Budek, please take care in this snow! Might get to use your beautiful candle holder tonight - or the snuffer. We won't forget you, sir. : )
