As for the circular indentation in the base my guess is that it was meant for a small candle, like a [I]votive[/I]. They usually come in a round metal holder. Lit it would give a sweet glow to the Bocuse [I]house[/I]. Perhaps it was intended as a gift to privileged patrons of Bocuse's establishments, or just as a decor in a restaurant window. I think it's adorable![/QUOTE]
