    I don't know how to describe this jar thing, have tried lidded jar and all sorts, can't find one exactly the same shape.
    Dunno if it has a name or just jar...the blue is lovely but the painting isn't very accurate
    It's 4 ish inches xx

    I usually leave candlesticks as they are everywhere but some brass madness made me grab these...how old are they ?
    The under is very clean so might be quite new
    Thy are 6 inches ish x x

    Great finds, Bou.:)
    The jar looks a bit like gaudy Welsh ware, probably inspired by something like that.

    The candlesticks are boutiful, love the style, sort of Regency style. Others will give a much better answer on those.:D

    The joss stick holder looks like leopard skin jasper. I am sure it is more stable than the poor banana.:playful:

    The oval based candlesticks look like late 20th and the square based one could be late Victorian to early Edwardian. :bag:

    Thank you xxx
    The smaller ones are a different colour to the (many :eek: ) others I have, sort of more copperyxx

    I'd agree the oval ones are newish. I think the square based one may be older than Victorian though, possibly 1820s or 30s.

    The jar looks French to me, that blue and the glaze colour.

    Whoahh, bou-tiful harvest, as AJ said:joyful:
    The jar has the same shape as a Stilton pot/jar, and in French Alsace, they use the same for foie gras!:p Yummm:joyful:

    Those oval bits may be new, but they're pretty. Your incense holder definitely needed to be replaced; it looks to be attracting fruit flies!

    I’d hazard a guess that the jar held some foodstuff like a cheese or condiment — fancy packaging, you know, with a container that you can use after you’ve eaten whatever was in it. Probably made within the last 20 years or so.

    I have that pair of oval brass candle sticks! I bought them new in the mid 1980s in a gift shop where I was working :)

    No flies! Not even sure there is any flesh left in the banana, it goes all yukkity after a day or so and has to be changed and the flesh seems to just go :O xxx
    I no longer have that problem, I have a posh ( for me) holder at last!
