*Please Visit Our Other Auctions This Week as we Also have Other Period Candlesticks from the Same Collection Also Offered on NO RESERVE Auctions!*
This piece was purchased out of a Private New England Lighting Estate assembled decades and decades ago focusing on period early lighting and metalware. This piece ha...s not been brought to market and was assembled by a collector who traveled extensively to find original period 16th and 17th century lighting. We have purchased a handful of these Early Brass Candlesticks out of said collection. Each was found tucked away in a corner cupboard and are in the condition they were found. They were literally unmoved or handled for an untold number of years.
Circa 1680 this is an earlier form of a Spanish Candlestick. European in original tradesmith made though many immigrated in American during the Colonial Period (and earlier). Again this piece was found in a New England Collection alongside some other articles of period furnishings we'll be offering.This example is in a great period form and again a rather early example.
About Very Good condition on the piece, though soley indicative of age related wear. Some signs of wear from age in the form of some pitting the the surface. Some small lines on the exterior of the socket from age. Underside of mid drip pan has some whitesh areas on the edge from old polish residue.
The piece has a Wrought Iron bar running through the center. The end can be seen inspecting the interior of the socket and the bottom has a nicely made iron finial on the center.
Bottom shows nice signs of turning, age and construction.
Please take a moment to view all the images. Stands approximately 9 1/4" tall with a base diameter of 4 1/2".Similar designs can be seen in countless reference books on the subject of 16th/17th century lighting.
IT IS TRULY A MUSEUM QUALITY PIECE OF PERIOD 17th CENTURY LIGHTING.
Certain to be a wondeful addition to any period lighting collection, and a SCARCE form!
