Thanks, Pat. I didn't think this would be so difficult. I have posted another picture with the candle "wings" attached. They seem to match, so I think they belong. I have not been able to find any markings on it. The foot long ruler gives some sense of size. Another interesting observation...

I have not been able to find any similar marking on the internet or at the library. Does anyone have a clue as to the maker, date and origin of my candlestick?
