Description: Presented is an elegant pair of antique sterling silver tall candlesticks, made by Gorham and dated 1917. These candlesticks are made in a strikingly long tapered form, with round stepped base and flares beneath the socle and at waist above the base. Around the upper portion of each shaft is finely hand engraved decoration in the form of floral garlands, ribbons, and swags, nicely detailed and well done. The bobeches/wax drips are removable for ease of cleaning. Each candlestick has a monogram of AB engraved on the base in fancy script, but the design is such that the candlesticks could easily be displayed with this monogram facing a wall, etc. These candlesticks are well made from thick, heavy gauge sterling silver, with interior weighting for stability. These candlesticks are in great overall condition. One candlestick has a dent to the socle, as pointed out in the tenth photograph. There are no other dents, no splits, no monogram removals, and no repairs. Both candlesticks are stamped and guaranteed sterling silver, with the maker's mark for Gorham and a product number A10918/1, as well as a date mark of a scimitar for 1917. The bobeches are also stamped sterling and A10914/1. Each candlestick stands about 14 inches tall and measures about 5 inches in diameter at the base. The total weight for the pair is 1537 grams, or 54.2 regular ounces. -jm Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
