Description

Technical Description

An exceptional matching pair of Salviati red glass candlesticks dating to around 1900. The scones and feet are rib moulded, the feet being slightly wrythen. Snapped pontil.

The quality of the workmanship and form would all indicate early Salviato Co.

We have had a pair of green example some years ago, but this is the first red examples. There are a number of very fine Salviati candlesticks on the market, however, you will seriously struggle to find a pair of Bed Chamber examples.

Date & Origin

Italy, c1900

Condition

Excellent, no chips, cracks or restoration.

Dimensions

Height: 7cm Foot Diameter: 12cm.

Historical Context

She has since been surpassed by her great-great-granddaughter Elizabeth II on the 9th of September 2015.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild detergent, avoiding harsh abrasives, ultrasonic cleaners, and sudden temperature changes to protect the fragile historical material.

They can be placed on mantelpieces or sideboards to introduce rich colour accents, contrasting effectively with minimalist surfaces and modern metallic finishes.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit pontil marks on the base, minor irregularities consistent with hand-blowing, and deep saturated colouration distributed evenly throughout the glass matrix.

They were crafted using free-blown and mould-blown glass techniques, often utilising mineral oxides such as gold or copper to achieve deep ruby red colourations within the soda-lime glass composition.

This period was characterised by a revival of historic glassmaking techniques, incorporating rich colour palettes, delicate optical ribbing, and classical Italian forms inspired by Renaissance and Baroque traditions.
