This pair of Victorian Neoclassical candlesticks from the nineteenth century consists of two matching sterling silver items hallmarked for London 1896 by Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co of 112 Regent Street. Each silver piece features removable circular sconces, fluted capital urn sockets, tapering rectangular columns, and stepped square bases with beaded borders. The decoration includes embossed leafy forms, rosettes, ribbons, drapery folds, and relief swags. Both items stand 24 cm high, 12 cm wide, and 12 cm deep, possessing fully marked bases with engraved maker details underneath. These items function well on a mantelpiece in a traditional living room or dining room setting to hold pillar candles during evening dining or social gatherings.

FAQs

Neoclassical Victorian silverware draws inspiration from classical Greco-Roman architecture and design, prominent during the late 19th-century revival. Key characteristics include urn-shaped sconces, tapering square or round columns, festoons, swags, and stepped square bases.

Victorian silver candlesticks were formed using sheet sterling silver stamped in die moulds or raised by hand. To provide stability for tall candles, bases were weighted with pitch, resin, or lead, and lined with green baize on the underside.

Authentic British sterling silver features a sequence of official assay marks stamped into the metal. These typically include the makers mark, the lion passant for sterling quality, a town mark such as the leopards head for London, a specific date letter, and the monarchs profile duty mark.

Antique silver candlesticks can be positioned in pairs along a dining table or placed symmetrically on a marble mantelpiece. Their bright metallic finish contrasts effectively against dark painted walls or natural wood surfaces.

Silver should be dusted regularly with a soft cotton cloth and polished occasionally using a dedicated silver foam or cloth to remove tarnish without stripping detailed chasing. Avoid immersing weighted bases in water to prevent damage to the interior fill.
