~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

A lovely candlestick with eight petals around its base and eight facets on its integral bobeche and on the prominent knop on its stem. The stem, base, and socket are also embellished with multiple fine rings at several locations.

In excellent condition. The pushup mechanism is present, but would require a warm soak to free it. We’ve opted to leave it alone.

English, 1780 – 1800

Height: 8”; Diameter of base: 3 ¾”

Price: $145
