There is no conduit.  There is no hole in the base, just the gaps in the design.  Thank you everyone for your help.  Still couldn't definitely say what they are.  Everyone in the family is researching and no one has found anything.  Guess it is time to bite the bullet and take them to an antique appraiser.  Would hate to set them outside if they are really, really old, or even if they are one of a kind.

If there is no conduit or holes to accomodate the wire then they are candle stands. I think if you clean them you may find they are brass.

What an imagination I have .. or is it just poor eyesight  ;D

I would agree with Mart ... no hole ... no place for flex ... so probably for candles, or just a very fancy objet d'art  ;D
