Mid 19th Century Classic Georgian Style Gadroon Candelabras in Old Sheffield Plate - a Pair
An elegant pair of antique candelabras in Old Sheffield plate. Simple classical style with gadroon arms and reeded decoration with beaded candle cups and discs. Each candelabra holds 3 standard taper candles. Can be converted to a pair of candlesticks by detaching the fitted arm. Made in England circa 1840-50. Marked on underside "K&K D" over a shield or coat of arms (possible that of Kenneth Knight).
Per literature: Old Sheffield plate was a process used in Georgian times to make articles from a sheet of copper fused with a thin sheet of sterling silver. This process predates the silver plating done today (electroplating) which started in the 1840s. The majority of these silverwares were made in Sheffield, England (hence the term Old Sheffield plate) which was a major UK center for silver production.
