This design of candlestick was popularised during 18th century georgian times and then much copied throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. So naturally there are many, many later copies available which could be described as “in the georgian style” or similar. This pair however are undoubtedly 18th century and georgian.

Considering that these candlesticks date to the 18th century, they remain in relatively excellent condition, clearly they have been well loved and well looked after throughout the many years of their lives.

As you can see from the images they could originally be taken apart, but now only one of them appears to come apart easily.

Very much fit for their original purpose we can highly recommend these candlesticks from both a decorative and functional perspective and think they will look fabulous no matter where they are placed in the home, nor what they are placed on.

Circa 1760.
