Well thank you for all the candlestick holder images! That was very kind and
well appreciated. Imagine if we had a candlestick making competition --
that would be crazy for we cant even agree with one another on the proper
name!!!!
I found a few of my own - they were simply labelled "candlesticks" and
were from Eva Zeisel's Zsolnay ceramic art exhibit (links below) and I am
assuming of course cost some $$.
In addition, I listened to the interview of her on NPR which was nice as
well - I did not know sadly she tried to attempt suicide. Well, I am pleased
to know she lived her life and had a very successful one as
a ceramicist making such beautiful art.

She is still having a rich life. She turned 100 on Nov. 13. She is still
very much alive, kicking and still designing here in NY.
