    Found these interesting and would like to know more about them.
    They are both about 4 3/4" tall shaped like vases, but open on both ends. one has a candle in the bottom so i was thinking that is what they are? Possibly someone might know where and when also.
    Any help would be awesome.

    Thank blooey, it's been a while since i have held any of this. so wasn't quite sure.
    i am thinking the candle was added and maybe should get rid of it? worthpoint called them shades, but you would be able to find some wouldn't you?

    I'd call it a shade, missing a brass base.

    I've known open end shades to be called Hurricane shades.

    They are great to have in the house in case of power failure. Keeps a lit candle a bit safer.

    Found this little lacquer wood base. I think it looks good.
