Have no idea who made the items. Very good condition. I'm assuming brass?

Hi Stephen,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
These candlesticks appear to have been made in the early 20th Century, when there was an interest in historical objects (also called Colonial Revival). I see what might be some infill of a white composition-like material to weigh these down; it's underneath the felt on the bottoms.
In the current market, collectors are usually willing to pay between $100 and $150 (each) for these regardless of size. Your set is worth $600-900.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
Three pairs of Colonial Revival brass candlesticks
In the European taste, early 20th century
Each with flaring engraved bobeche, engraved knopped standards and stepped square bases. Apparently unmarked, with felted (and possibly weighted) bases.
Two largest: 11-1/2 inches high x 5 inches wide
Two medium sized: 9 1/2 inches high x 4 inches wide
Two smallest: 8 inches high x 3 inches wide
CONDITION: These appear to be in good condition
PROVENANCE: Inherited
$600-900 for the set*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.
Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, or questions/concerns, and thank you again for using Mearto.

Delia,
Not a problem at all. Will send new pics asap. BTW... that was just a shot in the dark regarding the style.
Thanks,
