Chester 1909 Weighted Candlestick Holder
Weighted silver candlesticks became popular in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, allowing the appearance of solid silver while providing extra stability through a weighted base. This example is fully hallmarked Chester 1909, confirming both origin and date, and stands 7.75cm high with a base diameter of 8.5cm. It retains its original weighted construction and felt base covering, typical of the period. The upper section sits slightly off-centre, and there is minor damage around the edge of the base consistent with age and regular use over more than a century. An honest and characterful example of Edwardian silver with the wear expected of a practical household object. Uncover treasures in the heart of the Tasmanian bush.
