Thread: Please Help Identify these Metal Vases? Candleholders?

  1. #1

    Default Please Help Identify these Metal Vases? Candleholders?

    I have no clue what the country of origin is or the metal or even if they're vases or candleholders. Any thoughts on this?

    Oh I do like them!

    Are they hallmarked ie silver?


    I dunno but maybe they are Dutch? I dunno why. It's just a hunch.
    Spill vases maybe?

    I'm no expert & hallmarks would be nice, or at least get the metal tested.
    Dutch is a good guess - are there any windmills ?
    They may also be Danish.
    Vases would be my hunch.
    Hope someone ID's them for sure & good luck.

    they are both vase/candle holders, turn one way for candles and other for vase, called Metamorphic (i think)

    Danish silverplated for sure; I have a pair of cuff bracelets with the same exact design stamped Denmark Silver Plated. Not sure if they're vases or cande holders, they look like vases to me, but what do I know?

    You might want to check the Artfact website, they list collectibles and you can search by category, you might get some more info. that way.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,
