Description

A very fine and ornate George III silver candle snuffer stand with cast moulded rim with scrolls, gadrooning and roses. Set on 4 scrolled feet and with shaped raised handle with thumb rest and flower detail. The surface decorated with arabesques and flowers and a central engraved coat of arms in a shaped cartouche of a stag at gaze to the right hand side and three unusual symbols to the left against a hatched background, which I am yet to identify. They look a bit like bee hives with a spout to one side and a lozenge shaped base or opening; if anyone has any suggestions I should be very pleased to hear them.

Hallmarked for London 1817, maker Samuel Whitford II or Samuel Wheatley.

It measures 23.5cm (9 1/4") wide, 10.5cm (4 1/8") deep across the rim and 6cm (2 5/16") high. It weighs a very substantial 373g / 12.0ozt.

In excellent condition.

Date of Manufacture

The Fancy Fox has dated this piece to the Georgian era.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

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.
