Can anyone identify this Heisey(?) pattern? Candlesticks

    So I eventually acquired the pair of these though the photo only shows one and believe them to be Heisey based on the shape and size of the candlesticks. The mold appears to match the "Pluto" candlestick shape but the etching I'm not familiar with. Anyone have a clue? Thanks for any help! IMG_2691_rsz.jpg IMG_2698_rsz.jpg

    Thank you for the fast reply! So "Pluto" is the name of the mold and #114 is the etch number? My etch is different than the one linked above but just understanding that bit will be very helpful in ID'ing this.

    Hi, the design on you stick is cut, not etched. It is frosted because it was left unpolished :)

    #114 is the design number for Pluto. the closest floral cutting I saw was 604 sprig but not sure that is a match.

    #604 cutting predates the Pluto (#114) candlestick by a couple of decades at least. I don't believe that the cutting has been identified. It could well be a Heisey cutting not yet identified.

    You're right. Gray cut, not etched.

    Thank you for clearing that up.

    That's very interesting but I'm guessing not all that unusual to find an unidentified, cut/pattern?

    I can rarely figure what cut pattern I have on a Heisey piece. So many seem to be either undocumented or were purchased as blanks by decorating firms. Fortunately, it's all pretty so I'm willing to live with the uncertainty!
