Diana, Goddess of the Hunt Candlestick ID: Burgun-Schverer, France, 1880s

rusecure:
I posted this on the ebay glass board and a member suggested I bring it over here for help. I have a pair of these candlesticks which I believe portray Diana, or Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt. They are 10.5 inches tall and 4 & 7/8 inches wide at the base. She has a quiver on her back and is reaching back for an arrow. There is some kind of dead animal hanging down at her side. There are 4 lions heads around the base. There are 3 visible seams. I inherited the pair and am trying to find the maker, age and approximate value. I will greatly appreciate any help you can give me!

Mod: thumbnails removed and larger pictures attached as requested.

Hi, and welcome to the board. Your pictures are too small for us to see the details. Could you reduce the original photos again so that the longest side is about 600 pixels? Let us know if you need help.

pamela:
Welcom to the board!  :) May I also ask you, where you live, please?
Guess your candlestick holders are these

I will try to go back and work with the pictures. I worked hard to get them small because they would not post and guess maybe I got them too small.

Pamela, mine are frosted glass and those are clear glass. So that makes me wonder. I am very grateful to see the ones you found but wonder if it was also made in the frosted glass. They sure look like the same figure portrayed. I am located in the Knoxville, TN area.

Cathy I resized the photos to 600 on long side and got error message that they were too big to load. I can't find anything on my computer that compresses so am stumped.

Pamela, sorry I didn't think to put Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
