Possibly Bohemian candlestick
« on: April 01, 2017, 10:54:14 PM »
A correspondent sent me some pictures of what looks to me like a candlestick, but with a rather extraordinary style. He had previously taken advice on the piece from a glass dealer who suggested Bohemian and 1950s. It certainly looks Bohemian to me, but have no idea of date of manufacture. Can anyone shed any light on the piece?  ::)

Could this have been designed for use in a church?
