, these look like porcelain figural candlesticks with Pierrot / Harlequin-style children sitting under the candle holders. This style was very common in continental European porcelain in the late 19th to early 20th century. Based on the modeling and glaze colors (cream-yellow base with blue gradient candle cups), they are most likely German or Central European factory pieces rather than English or French.

Likely factory

Most similar examples come from porcelain factories in Thuringia, Germany, such as:

Volkstedt

Sitzendorf

Katzhütte

Hertwig

Many small factories there produced decorative porcelain figures starting in the mid-1700s and especially in the 1800s.

Without seeing the mark on the bottom, it is impossible to say the exact factory, because dozens of workshops made similar models.

Approximate year

Based on style and glaze:

c. 1890–1930 (most likely)

Art-nouveau / early 20th-century decorative porcelain

These were often made as mantel ornaments or candlesticks for homes.

Typical market price

For a pair like yours (if no famous factory mark):

$100 – $120 for the pair in normal condition

$150 – $300 if a known maker (Volkstedt, Sitzendorf, etc.)

$500+ only if a rare or highly collectible fact
