Description
A late 18th Century antique brass candlestick of unusual/rare form.
The sconce formed as a cresset with decorative fretwork, over a knopped stem, terminating on a stepped circular lobbed base.
It is likely that the cresset would have had an oily rag placed within it which, would have been lit at night to provide light.
Condition – good as per images. A further detailed condition report is available upon request.
Size: Height 21 cm (8 1/4″)
