Lot 2: A Pair of Silver-Plated Three-Light Candelabra in the Neoclassical Style
A pair of silver-plated three-light candelabra, each featuring a central fixed nozzle and two scrolling branches supporting additional urn-shaped nozzles. The nozzles, branches, and circular pedestal bases are decorated with beaded borders. The items are constructed from silver-plated base metal, likely brass. No maker’s marks, hallmarks, or assay marks are visible. Both items feature white adhesive labels on the bases printed with the number 11, and one nozzle retains a small orange circular sticker with the handwritten number 2.
Condition report:
The candelabra show signs of moderate wear consistent with age and use. There is significant bleeding of the silver plating on the central stems and raised beaded sections where the underlying yellow base metal is visible. Surface tarnishing and minor scratches are present throughout. The items retain adhesive auction labels.
