Some similarities such as the ring-matte chasing (see second photo) exist between this and China Trade items which were imported to Boston during an albeit slightly later time frame, (see Forbes, figures 41 and 153), which along with the four toed feet and overall chunky-ness of this item leads me to wonder if Messr's Welles...

These are not cleaned up and have a pleasing patina and overall presentation. They are a bit more squat and massive than later candlesticks, and have rectangular bases.
