Brass Candle or Chamber sticks with 3 Fleur de lis

By tinab1170, 15 August, 2011
Description

 There does not appear to be a makers mark on the back of these chambersticks, however there are 3 lines at the end of the handles (on both) that do not follow the pattern of the candlesticks.  There is a circle in the middle of the drip pan and it has 3 arches extending from it.  All three arches have a Fleur de lis centered in it and something seems to extend from the bottom of the symbol.  In between teh arches are what appear to be possibly roman numerals...1 M maybe, an X, 2 smaller V's and I cannot tell what the other is though it appears to be another M but it would be upside down of the others.  Turning it the same way as the others it appears to be maybe an intwined F and R but that is really a guess.  The pan and handle is 1 piece.  They are not sodered together and appear to be made in a mold.  The scalloped edge is uneven and the teeth around the edge are not the same size.  Close...but the edge appears to be done by hand.  I am at a loss.  I can not find these any where on line and lack the knowledge of antique terminology to really begin to know what to even seach on these.
