FAQs

Corinthian column candlesticks feature architectural shafts modelled after classical Greek columns, topped with detailed acanthus leaf capitals. Popularised during the eighteenth century and revived in the early twentieth century, this Neoclassical form remains a foundational motif in British silver design.

Antique British candlesticks of this design are crafted from sterling silver, containing 92.5 percent pure silver alloyed with copper for structural integrity. The bases are typically pitch-filled or weighted to ensure stability when holding tall taper candles.

Authenticity is confirmed by examining hallmarked stamps on the base rim or capital, including the makers mark for Garrard & Co, the leopards head for the London assay office, the lion passant indicating sterling silver, and the corresponding date letter.

Arranging a symmetrical pair of silver column candlesticks on a dark wood dining table or contemporary marble mantelpiece creates visual structure and pairs historical silversmithing with modern architectural lines.

Silver should be cleaned periodically using a soft cotton cloth and a specialised silver polish, avoiding abrasive materials that can strip detailed relief work. Accumulated candle wax should be removed using warm water rather than sharp tools to prevent scratching.
