This will make you smile IVO. In desperation I did an image search for antique glass candlestick and found an exact pair being sold on a U.S. Antique website. I was hoping the had identified them but the listing just stated they were

English 19th century $550 the pair!!  :rah:

No reference to the reg mark.

I have been in touch with Seigmar in Germany and he couldn't come up with anything. I think Ill giv up on this one.

Never say never......have you asked the seller if they have looked for a mark,  because if they have one,  it might be a bit clearer than yours, and they may be prepared to photograph it for you.  I find the Americans so friendly and often ask them for help.....go on,  have a try.  :sun:

Hartmann gives ö marks as circa 1920. Also mentions that they often did things for Novy Bor school but school would not be registering designs in UK.

Perhaps a trip to Kew and find out what/who the trademark was for... you have one digit and a date range to start with.

There is always an answer one-day... I have been waiting 20+ years to solve some puzzles.
