Hi Abigail, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. These possibly had cobalt blue glass liners in them at one time and could have served a few purposes; if they were for candles there would likely be a lot of wax residue or subsequent tarnishing, which I don't see here. Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is: Two pierced silverplated cylindrical vessels Made in England, 20th Century Both of circular form with pierced sides and scalloped rims, on solid bases The smaller 4 inches high by 3 inches diameter The larger 4 1/2 inches high by 3 1/5 inches diameter Weight: 265g total CONDITION: both appear to be in good condition $125-175 for both together* *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary. Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you again for using Mearto.
