Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Corinthian column candlesticks draw inspiration from ancient Greek architecture, featuring fluted shafts, square stepped bases, and capitals ornamented with acanthus leaves. Popular during the late 18th century and Victorian Neoclassical revivals, this design emphasizes classical symmetry and architectural detail.

Victorian silver candlesticks were made using sterling silver, which consists of 92.5% pure silver alloyed with copper for structural durability. To provide stability and support the weight of long taper candles, the hollow cast or die-stamped silver shafts were typically filled with pitch or resin weighted bases.

Authentic British sterling silver pieces feature a series of stamped hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for silver purity, an assay office symbol (such as a leopard head for London or anchor for Birmingham), a date letter indicating the year of manufacture, and a makers mark.

Silver candlesticks function effectively as structured focal points on a dining table centrepiece, sideboard, or fireplace mantelpiece. Pairing silver with natural linen, dark polished wood, or contemporary glassware balances historical decorative elements with modern interior design.

Remove surface dust using a soft microfiber cloth, and treat tarnish or oxidisation with a non-abrasive silver polish applied gently along the fluting and cast details. Avoid submerging weighted candlesticks in water, as moisture can damage the interior filler and loosen the construction.
