Please help me identify these antiques
« on: September 25, 2012, 05:39:38 pm »
As I am spring cleaning, I found these interesting vintage items. I have the foggiest notion on the history of these items. So please help me identify what these are. I appreciate any attempts of help in identifying these items in any manner.

Made in India Candle-holder




Large Antique Candle-holder Silver Plated






Antique Wooden Bucket Signed with Lid, Silver Plated

I can tell you that India Brass is about as common as you can get. I've bought and sold a lot of it in the last few years. Not for very much either.

Ok guys, sorry for the inconvenience. I'll attempt to shrink down the size of the items. Thank you guys for taking the time to help me. By the way, I have managed to identify the wooden bucket with nickel silver electroplating seems - it is a Williams & Brookes (circa 1892 - 1898) Boulsover plating. But the following item I could not identify.

rockandrollrods , may I ask how much you sold each made in India candle holders? I really could appreciate a good figure that it can be sold.

I have not sold the exact same ones, but similar ones to yours. The same "Made in India" stickers and everything. I got somewhere around $30 for a pair about a year ago. They were around 8" tall, and had that India Brass look for sure.
