Greetings,
Found this rococco candlestick recently. I know it is from Augsburg and circa 1760 or 70. I'm hoping someone can identify the SB maker's mark and possibly pin down the V date letter with exactitude.
Many thanks,
AinA

Hello Antiquer, SB is for Samuel Bardet, active between 1759 and 1800. The letter V in this shape was used between 1771 and 1773. Best wishes, Bahner
