 Hi all,

I am interning at the Aspen Historical Society and we have an item that
I cannot identify.  I will try and describe it here but I would also be
happy to send a photo to anyone who thinks they might know what it is
from my cryptic description.

It is a silver triple plated item from the Royal MFG Co.  It is
approximately 15 inches tall with and ornate handle and about 3 inches
from the bottom there is a circular "contraption" that is screwed on. 
On the circular part there are five 2 inch round holes.  Screwed into
the circular portion there is a 9 inch ornate handle.

Many of us have gone through a pipe holder, candle holder etc. . . but
honestly we are at a loss.  If anyone knows anything about the Royal MFG
Co. or if they think they might be able to help please let me know and
send me your e-mail and I can send a picture.  I know my description is
not the best.  I am trying to enter this into the database and not
knowing what it is makes it difficult.

Thanks so much,

Tracy Leach
