  • How do you shine brass candlesticks?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To refurbish brass candlesticks, start by removing any wax. Then, combine one tablespoon of salt with a half cup of white vinegar and mix in white flour to create a paste.

On 1stDibs, shop a variety of antique and vintage brass candlesticks.
  • What is the difference between a candlestick and a candelabra?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A candlestick and a candelabra are types of candle holders designed to hold tapered candles. A candelabra, or candelabrum, if the holder can hold more than one candle can be varied in design, but was created to hold candles aloft, giving them stately height. Candlesticks are designed to hold a single candle. Shop a wide collection of candelabras from top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • What is the difference between candlesticks and candleholders?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The main difference between candlesticks and candleholders is the number of candles they can hold. A candlestick is a type of candleholder that has a socket or spike to hold one single candle. A candleholder can hold more than one candle. Shop a selection of candlesticks and candleholders on 1stDibs.
  • How do you fix a wobbly candlestick?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    To fix a wobbly candlestick, try wrapping the bottom of the candle with plastic wrap before you insert it into the holder. You can also remove the taper, drip a little wax into the candlestick’s opening and then press the candle down until it sticks. On 1stDibs, find a variety of candlesticks.
  • What can I use instead of a candlestick holder?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    You can use a variety of items instead of a candlestick holder. Place a candle on a stone or marble coaster or rest it on a plate. You can also put candles in vases, bowls and jars. However, double-check that whatever you choose to substitute for a candle holder is flame- and heat-resistant. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of candle holders.
  • How much are sterling silver candlesticks worth?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Sterling silver candlesticks are worth $5 to $10, on average. Sterling silver candlesticks are not worth much because there is very little silver in sterling silver.
  • How can I identify 18th century brass candlesticks?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    One way to check if your brass candlesticks are from the 18th century is to look for the two seams running lengthwise on either side. This is from when the candlestick was molded in two halves and then soldered together. You’ll find a variety of candlesticks of all shapes and sizes from some of the top sellers on 1stDibs.
