Can anyone tell me if these are 17th or 18th century candlesticks. Their shape, and design seem to resemble 17th century, but all I have to go with is a Minerva Hallmark, and a AC makers mark that I can't seem to find anywhere. Thanks

Assuming that you've checked here and verified that it is a Minerva head, your piece would be 19th century or later.

Photos are always a help: http://www.925-1000.com/images.html
