FAQs

Corinthian column candlesticks gained widespread popularity during the Neo-Classical revival of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, taking inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman architecture. The design features a fluted shaft topped with an acanthus leaf capital and supported by a stepped pedestal base.

These candlesticks were crafted from sterling silver sheet metal formed around a weighted resin or pitch core to provide structural stability. The intricate capitals and beaded bases were often cast separately and soldered into place before hand-finishing and hallmarking.

Authentic British sterling silver pieces feature a set of official hallmarks stamped into the metal, typically around the base or capital rim. These marks include the makers mark, the lion passant for silver purity, an assay office symbol, and a date letter code.

Pair these tall silver candlesticks on a dining table or sideboard to add verticality and classical symmetry. They integrate into contemporary spaces alongside natural linen textiles, dark polished timber, or minimalist glass surfaces.

Clean silver candlesticks using a soft cotton cloth and specialised, non-abrasive silver polish to prevent scratching. Avoid immersing weighted bases in water, as moisture can damage the interior fill material or cause oxidisation.
