Unusual looking candlestick, at first glance the surface finish reminds me of Skruf or Pukeberg but the design is not one I have seen before and for no particularly good reason I would also look towards German glass makers for an ID.

Leave it here for a bit and then we'll switch to another forum...might as well try and get as many people looking as we can.  :)

Thought I should add this note...This looks like ice sculpture, a description from a friend that seems to fit. Looking at it I agree it does look as if carved from ice. No idea if this helps in any way  :24:

I'll shift it over to Glass Pete as it's still waiting for an ID. Fresh eyes might help. ;)
