Candlesticks and candelabra would have been used throughout the house as lighting in every room. They would adorn various places in the house, including dining tables during mealtimes, mantlepieces throughout the evenings, and bedsides at night. They came in various shapes and sizes and were made from a variety of materials including wood, brass, silver and silver plate.
 
This pair of ornate silver plated candlesticks are from the end of the Victorian period. These sticks have removable sconses for cleaning and removing of candle wax. They would have been in the house of a middle to high income family.
 
In very good condition.
