Below
is one of the prototype candlesticks in
sepia colours with the original base
Below
you can see the altered base, on the original
you can see the wood grain like on the rest
of the candlestick but on the released version
a collar was added to make the base wider
and more stable
Here
are a few side by side comparison photo's
On
the picture below you can see that the prototype
had a thicker rim at the top
On
the picture below you can clearly see difference
in the size of the base's
Below
is the very original wooden candlestick
that was turned by John J. Woodward, this
is the original that Craig Davison sculpted
the dragon around
The sepia candleholder
in these two photos is owned by 'woodlandfae'
and I own the wooden original
Below is one of the sepia candlesticks that were already made and so not wanting to lose money on them, they were sold to the American distributer Munro who sold them as a limited numbered run of 165 pieces (seperate from the 2,950 run) they also came without any kind of certificate.
The piece is
owned by collector Liv Rainey who also
took the photos and as such she owns the ©copyright to
them - used with kind permission - the candle came with the piece and in the
second photo you can see '149/165' wrote
on the base showing that it was part of
the limited run
