Lot 596:
Description
C-18112
Elegant silverplate chamberstick featuring a classical turned candle holder, matching conical snuffer, and circular drip tray with an integrated handle. The design recalls Georgian and Regency-era forms but was produced in the early 20th century, when revivalist silver and silverplate wares enjoyed renewed popularity for domestic use. Compact yet substantial, this piece served as a practical bedside or tabletop lighting accessory-balancing utility with refined craftsmanship and mirrored finish. Silverplating firms of this era, particularly in Sheffield and New England, were known for producing high-quality decorative and functional household goods that emulated sterling design at an accessible price point.
Shows light surface wear and minor tarnish consistent with age; overall in good vintage condition.
5.25" dia x 4.75" H
