Title: sterling candle holders
Post by: debodun on March 13, 2012, 01:55:36 PM

These are 4" tall and 3" wide at the base. The mark also says they are "weighted" so an accurate weight of the silver can't be made. The company is Duchin. Are they still in business? Any other info or constructive comments appreciated?

Just looked at one of the sites for silver And it said "Duchin Creations" Established in 1944 in NY,, makers of a large line of sterling silver hollow ware !! That sounds like they are still in business !! Lots of their silver listed !!
They used 2 marks,, one just has By Duchin,, and the other has Duchin Creations with a ladys hand I think it was !!
