    I recently purchased this Candlestick Holder and I'd like to know more about it. I was told it's 17th century which makes sense to me but I've never seen one this ornate and tall. Was it in a church, Manor house? Any help would be greatly appreciated! IMG_5824.jpg IMG_5825.jpg IMG_5826.jpg IMG_5826.jpg IMG_5827.jpg IMG_5828.jpg IMG_5829.jpg IMG_5831.jpg IMG_5832.jpg

    a lead weight on the bottom does not speak of 17th century to me....

    I think they had lead in the 17th Century or it could have been added laTER.

    As I do more research I'm starting to feel that this may be Victorian. Can someone tell me when the Double Helix open Barley twist style first appeared? Thanks

    I love barley twists in wood. Have a pair of 19th century barley twist candlesticks myself.
