Comments

The candlesticks feature a slightly tapered candle socket with no bobeche at the top, only a think ring.  Below the socket is a squared baluster atop a reel and an inverted baluster.  The shaft stands on a domed, octagonal base.

The candlestick pair is similar to accession nos. 1959.3557 and 1959.3716, which are likely a pair.
