I received these as a gift in 1967 from a relative on my Other Half’s side of the family who was elderly at the time. She said they were old even then. I know that they she was born in Arkansas before 1900 and probably came out west during the depression.
They have no markings of any kind and are heavy. They have three legs and are very beautiful. I am sure they were originally designed to hold tapers but the base inside is big enough you could put 1 inch candles in them as well. They weigh almost 1 pound 7 ounces together.
Any ideas?

Fabulous picture!
These look like Jeannette Glass “National” pattern candle holders.
My Gene Florence reference book on glassware from the 40s, 50s, and 60s says this pattern was made from the late 1940s-mid 1950s.
