Sterling Silver Candlesticks by George Howson - Antique Edwardian (1901)

Description

These fine antique Edwardian sterling silver candlesticks have plain circular, octagonal panelled form onto an oval spreading base.

The cylindrical rounded capital of the antique silver candlesticks retain the original navette shaped detachable push fit sconces.

The tapering octagonal panelled column of each candlestick is embellished with impressive applied fluted ornamentation accented with a band of fluted floral designs to the centre.

The base is encompassed with further applied narrow fluted decoration in a graduated design.

The concave incurved channel of each base bears the contemporary bright cut engraved presentation inscription 'Eltham Ladies Mixed Foursomes, Won by Mrs & Mr A.C.Latter, June 1902, Presented by R. Whyte Esq'.

Both candlesticks have filled bases, as to be expected and are fitted with green baize to the underside.
