These are 2 different candlesticks hand made of copper and brass. At first I thought it was wrought iron because of the color, but a magnet does not stick to it. They were found together and have features similar enough that I believe they were likely made by the same artisan. Each is approx. 9" high. The one with the copper dome base is 4" in diameter and weighs a little more than a pound. The other tripod style one is 7" at the widest and is slightly less than a pound. I have not bee...n able to find any maker's marks on either one. I mention Roycroft because they would certainly fit in with pieces made by them. They look to be made in the early 20th century to put them square in the Arts & Crafts era. The "copper" one has handmade copper nuts that attach the feet to the base. They are a little loose and will not tighten completely. The feet are wobbly, but secure. It is also missing a rivet in the top copper piece. The other one is missing one screw on the bottom.
They are both expertly made by a skilled metal worker and are truly "one of a kind" pieces.
