This is outwardly similar to other Edward Moore 4725 candlesticks I have and shown in the 1888 supplement. It is different in that it it has a flower petal pattern on the underside of the base and is larger at 8 3/4", it weighs over 2lbs./940gms. Density is 2.7 gcm3.

Hi Nev
I have a large pair of these, I think they come in different sizes, Neil carried out a density check on mine ages ago they come out quite high so I think they are from the north west rather than the north east so maybe not Moore? I’ve never been able to identify them. So hope you can.
Cheers Mike

Ah that one. Yeah we got 2.9g/cc for that. This could mean it's a relatively early pressing, and/or a quality maker.
Unlikely to be a northeast firm unless it was pressed prior to the mid 1860s, in which case Moore is just about possible.

Thanks Mike and Neil, perhaps a marked one will turn up one day. Here is my collection of various sizes in two colours.
