Antique Wmf Art Deco Candle Holder

1900 - 1920
Description

This is gorgeous!

A highly stylised candle holder, made by the highly regarded German firm, WMF.

The marks on the base are quite informative and enable us to date this item between around 1910 - 1918. (Marks: "B" means Britannia metal, a zinc-antimony-copper alloy which served as a base metal for silver plating, "I/O" means normal silver coating, "OX" means oxidized finish).

There are a few marks on the kite-shaped base, the purpose of which is a mystery. The item could be used as a 'go to bed' candle holder or chamberstick, but that seems unlikely as, by carrying it, the helmeted warrior is covered.

An interesting, tactile piece.

Dimensions:

Height: 15cm

Length: 16cm

Width: 12cm

Post and packaging are free within the UK. Overseas buyers please e-mail for postage costs. Thank you.

Please note: payment by credit or debit card can be made by pressing the ‘pay now’ button on the item page - A PayPal account is not needed.
