Porcelain candlesticks? Tribal man & woman? Help ID please:)

Maybe they are ceramic? IDK. I thought this would be fairly simple to research, but I am not having any luck. Are they candlesticks? The top of them are different sized. Who made them?, I was told they are probably from the 50's, but again don't know. Any help at all is greatly appreciated, thank you.

How's this?

 

Oh girl, you are the best! Thank you soooo much Gila!

 

I guess if people are calling them Blackamoors, that's what they're calling them. I wouldn't. Maybe Thai, Siamese, Oriental. The style is a type of Oriental-ism popular in the '50s and early '60s. They might be California pottery. They might not.

 

Thanks moreotherstuff, that's a great point! I did a bit of digging, and it looks like many sellers are calling them Nubian African Tribal...
like on this page, there are a few listings showing in the center of the page.
