Antique Sterling Silver Candelabras Pair of Pure Silver Candle Holders Hallmarke
About the Item
A set of 2 candle holders, a pair of elegant and pure sterling silver 925 large antique hallmarked three light candelabra in the late 19th-century taste.
These fine candelabra have shaped oval bases and fluted stems. All the nozzles are fully detachable to assist in cleaning. They are also all hallmarked tested and original.
The branches terminate in faceted spool-shaped sockets with a detachable nozzle. There is a further central socket with an alternate detachable finial and nozzle, which can turn the candelabra into a two-light. The branches pull off and one can use them as candlesticks alone.
The candelabra are created in Britain and hallmarked of the Martin Hall & Co (1854), sterling silver proof as a lion mark the symbol of anchor which represents the city of Birmingham and the year of production, on the bases, branches, nozzles and finials. The bases are filled with the original green velvet inserts.
A very high-quality pair and they have the benefit of being three-light (whereas the majority of candelabra are two-light).
