Can anyone provide any info on these please? They appear to be brass like, but don't seem to polish up beyond what they are like here. The larger (2 handled) one is about 300mm high and the smaller (single handle) about 180mm. They both come apart as shown. They weren't mounted on the plinths when I first got them.

looks very similar if not identical. "Made in Italy" suggests a tourist piece, made in the last ? 30? 50? years. Some sort of plated metal?

That does look very similar, thanks swans I wonder if that one originally had a top like mine that has been lost over time or if they made separate pieces. I can't see the bottom, because it's attached to the plinth, so can't check the markings.
