I have a Johann Gunter handle. It has the removable top and has never been burned. It is about 8" tall and 4" wide and features a chimney sweep with a ladder on his back, a pig with coins (from top to bottom 1cent, 50 cents, 10 cents, 5 cents, and coins on the bottom), it has a four leaf clover, horseshoe, die (showing 6) the four of hearts, two mushrooms with rope edging on the top and bottom. I cannot find any information on this at all, everything I have found is people with the same questions as myself. I've seen several of these on ebay for a buy it now price of $50. Does anyone have any other information or can tell me the worth of my candle?

Re: Johann Gunter Candle
Based on your images it's unlikely the candle predates the 1960's. As for value I've never run into anyone who collects them, or seen one sell at auction, but I can't see one selling for more than $20.00.
