Mark Seabrook Antiques has dated this piece to the 17th Century.
...I have shown this to a very experienced dealer in metalware and like me we both think it is original to the candlestick....it was made in the reign of Charles 11...it has gained a lovely mellow natural colour to the brass and is in excellent unrestored condition, hence the verdigris on the base...which could be removed , but is part of its natural age.....provenance of a good dealers collection...
English. C1660-C1670.
