Their bold scale and clean classical form make them ideal for anchoring a dining table, console, or large interior vignette.
The proportions are particularly strong, with wide bases and generous drip pans that create a grounded, architectural silhouette. Designed to accommodate pillar candles or hurricane shades, they offer both versatility and visual impact.
Constructed in heavy silverplate over brass with machine-turned interiors and threaded components, consistent with quality mid-century decorative metalwork. The substantial weight and construction distinguish them from typical lighter examples.
Condition is very good vintage. Light surface wear consistent with age, including minor wear to the silverplate. There is a small area on one drip pan where the underlying brass is faintly visible, along with minor interior oxidation. One section of one drip cup shows a subtle production irregularity that does not detract from overall presentation. The pair displays beautifully with a bright, reflective finish.
Sourced from a private Jupiter Island estate.
A refined and substantial pair offering scale, weight, and timeless presence.
Height: 11.5 inches
Base diameter: 8.25 inches
Top diameter: approximately 3.25 inches

Weight: approximately 6.25 pounds each (over 12 pounds for the pair) See less
