Solid Brass 21” Barley Twist Candlesticks with Square Bases, England, 19th c.

About the Item

English solid brass barley twist candlesticks are very desirable when they reach 21" in height. What makes them more collectable is the square base (most are round) with the double beaded border (very unusual). They have large circular bobeches to collect any dripping wax. Polished by hand in our workshop. (We go through the laborious task of hand polishing because it does not remove all the patina that machine polishing will remove.) Measures: Height 21" Base 4.75" square.
