Lot 11: A Pair of Brass Candlesticks with Pineapple Knops
A pair of cast and turned brass candlesticks in a classical revival style. Each piece features a circular, tiered base that rises to a slender stem. The stem is detailed with a prominent central knop decorated with a textured diamond-patterned pineapple motif. Above this textured section, the stem leads to a wide, circular drip pan and a flared, cup-shaped candle nozzle. The candlesticks exhibit a bright, polished yellow-metal finish.
Condition report:
The candlesticks are in good overall condition. There is minor surface wear, including light scratches and small areas of tarnish and oxidation consistent with age and handling. Adhesive residue is present from contemporary retail or auction labels on the nozzle and base. No significant dents, bends, or structural repairs are visible.
