llaney Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 I've just purchased this artifact that I think may be a bronze candle holder of Japanese origin. Possibly from a Buddhist temple. It appears to be made of several cast pieces that were joined, with ornamentation also added. It is 22" tall. The top, where a spike might go to hold the candle, has been drilled to use it as a lamp base. Any leads or observations are appreciated. I can add any photos with details if requested. Quote
