    I just purchased this candelabra today and was told it was brass and from the late 1800s. I've tried some simple googling and haven't found any info on it and was wondering if you could help! I can't understand the stamp on the bottom at all either.
    Each piece seems to unscrew from the others I noticed. It's also pretty heavy. Thanks!

    It just says "Registered." Likely of Spanish manufacture. (That kind of brass ware has been and is popular in Spain.) And very possibly much more recent than the late 1800s.

    Perhaps the candelight reflects off of it and looks pretty? Although I think its a pretty silly thing to do.

    Yea it's pretty, I don't mind it since I don't plan on reselling it, I would prefer it to be more authentic to how it was originally but oh well. It seems to be almost cemented in or something, I scratch what it is and it feels a bit like stone or grout. When I unscrew it from the base and look inside it, I see paper shoved in there.
