[QUOTE="aaroncab, post: 1295719, member: 3974"]This caught my eye so I brought it home. It's 10 inches tall (26cm). Decorated with poppies. Assuming it's a candle holder (wish I had a pair of them), the opening at the top is 1.5 inches in diameter and 3.5 inches deep. Looks like it was turned on a lathe and then decorated using pyrography and painted. I love the poppies, and that about sums up my opinion on this :) Anyhow - probably impossible to tell but - thinking this is probably continental European but I don't know how to narrow down from there. Seems to have some age on it to me - maybe early to mid 20th? Thanks for taking a look!
