Description

This stately silver-plated candlestick commands attention with its bold repousse ornamentation, featuring grape clusters, beaded borders, and scrolling acanthus leaf motifs across both the bobeche and the wide circular base. The shaft is elegantly tapered and separates into two pieces via a threaded screw mechanism, a hallmark of quality Victorian and Edwardian-era candlestick construction that allowed for easy packing and transport. The underside bears a stamped crown mark alongside what appears to read as a registration number and the word REG., strongly suggesting British manufacture and design registration, likely dating this piece to the late 19th or early 20th century. The silver plating shows honest patina and tarnishing consistent with its age, adding authenticity rather than detracting from its undeniable presence on any table or mantelpiece.
