Circa early 1900's, this candlestick is done in the matt green glaze first introduced in 1904.  This chamberstick style candleholder is marked on the base with an impressed "Hampshire" mark along with the M in a circle and the number 82.  The darker shaded marking on the candlestick neck is unknown to us.
