I've a weight by them, has that lovely oil finish to it.
Hobby, possibly, but it's copying a Victorian design.
@Jivvy You genius! I'd half wondered if it was Marjorie.

Modern candle holder. I see these in all sorts of colours, dunno who makes them.

Spanish, if I saw it my side of the pond.
Pulishers, eh!
