A versatile pair of two-branch, three-light sterling silver candelabra in the neoclassical style, incorporating typical designs of the 1780s. Rams head masks, swags, garlands and beading are in evidence on the detachable branches and candlesticks.

The nozzles are removable for ease of cleaning. For a more intimate table setting, the branches can be removed and the candlesticks on their own are 310mm (12¼") tall. When both sets of arms are put together they form a single five-light centrepiece 515mm (20¼") tall and sheds greater light across the table.

The candelabra are fitted in their original wooden storage/travelling case.

Neoclassicism was born in Rome in the mid-18th century before spreading throughout Europe. It is the name given to Western movements in the arts and architecture that draw inspiration from the classical art and culture of Ancient Greece or Rome.
