These exceptional antique Edwardian English sterling silver candlesticks have a plain square form in the classic Arts and Crafts style.
The plain hallmarked cylindrical capitals of these Edwardian candlesticks surmount circular rounded drip pans.
The capitals are supported by plain faceted tapering columns embellished with a broad band of rivet decoration to the lower portion.
The square base of each candlestick is embellished with a continuation of applied rivet style decoration to the corners.
The weighted silver bases of these impressive Arts & Crafts candlesticks are fitted with green baize to the underside.
These exceptional candlesticks have been crafted by the same maker, in the same style and period as this pair of candlesticks (C7234); they would sit very well together as a composite set.
These Sheffield sterling silver candlesticks reflect the quality and restraint of classic English design, long valued for bringing warmth and atmosphere to the home. They are well suited to formal dining tables, mantelpieces or sideboards, where their balanced form creates a refined focal point, and can also be incorporated into seasonal displays with ease. As a pair, they make a thoughtful and enduring gift for weddings, anniversaries, housewarmings or significant birthdays.
