    Obviously ecclesiastical. Might be tarnished brass rather than bronze based on the gold color I am seeing here and there. Probably made the same for a lot of years, late 19th century and well on in to the 20th.

    I would have thought these 19th century altar candlesticks would have had pins like the ones on the following site. Possibly the site might be able to ID them. How tall are they? Judging by the brick wall behind them, I suspect they are around 3' high?

    Edit: The base and feet on the following candlesticks from the above site for what these old eyes can see look identical to yours.

    If they are identical then yours are missing the candlestick bobeches with the pins.
