A Pair of Sterling Silver Weighted Candlesticks in the Georgian Style - A pair of silver candlesticks of weighted construction, designed in a classic Georgian style with baluster-form stems and circular stepped bases. The pieces are manufactured from sterling silver, as evidenced by the 925 fineness mark impressed on the interior of the base. Beside the fineness mark is a second small rectangular stamp, though it is not clearly legible. The form is typical of mid-20th-century silver production, utilizing a thin gauge of silver over a weighted core for stability.
