This is an 8" glass candlestick, blown, hollow ... possibly 2 pieces. Nicely cut floral design. Marked on bottom ... I am including 2 photos of the markings, there are 4. Marks in a quadrant. Looks like one is PR (top right); bottom right is a symbol, a circle with cross inside. Can you identify?

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

The marks on the candlestick are those of the glassblower and not of any glass companies selling this candlestick. It looks very primitive and looks like a trial piece of someone trying his hand at making one. I don't recognize any specific pattern. Useful....YES!!

THANKS Loumans! A contemporary piece no doubt. Noticed some "honest wear" though on the bottom under bright light; forgot to mention it has a polished pontil. Could be a learner's piece, you might be exactly right. I've never seen this way of marking a blown piece, so it's interesting in that respect. THANKS AGAIN for your response!
