I got these candle holders a few years back from my mother. She got them in Germany. This is all I know about them. They appear to be pressed glass, and I believe they are Victorian. One has a lion's head.
Thanks for looking:)

Thanks so much, nutsaboutas6.
Also many thanks for the links, TallCakes:)
Very beautiful!!!
Thanks again, SEAN68:)
your very welcome darling!!
you're welcome; most like the bobeches and prisms were added separately as they are a match, and the candlesticks likely weren't originally sold with them. They are both very nice.
TallCakes, you are correct. They prisms come off. But I always thought they belonged together:) I guess I was wrong.

Your very welcome freiheit!!
on closer look maybe they are both Brockwitz. Check the lion motif with #8184; the 3rd on in 1st row of this 1915 Brockwitz catalog. Also check the bobeche design on page 131; maybe #8123:

TallCakes, you are amazing! I have no idea how you figured out what my candleholders could be. I must admit, though, that all of these patterns make my head spin. To an untrained eye like mine all of the patterns look the same. Turns out I was wrong - they are not Victorian but rather from a later time.
you are very welcome : ) 1915 is typically considered as close to the end of the Victoria Era, at least when it comes to considering EAPG anyway. These are very nice candlesticks!
Once again thank you for your help and for your kind words:)

Thanks so much, Aimathena:)
