A Pair of Silver-Plated Mid-Century Modern Candlesticks by August Schrader - This pair of mid-century modern candlesticks features a minimalist trumpet form with a flared rim and base. The pieces are constructed from silver-plated metal and were produced in Solingen, Germany, circa 1950-1960. Each base is stamped with the AS maker mark for August Schrader along with Solingen Germany and Intern Pats. The design utilizes a sleek hourglass silhouette achieved through casting and machining with a polished finish. Dimensions: 5.25 inches (13.3 cm) in height. The candlesticks show some surface tarnishing, spotting, and oxidation throughout the silver-plated finish. There are no visible dents, cracks, or structural repairs. Minor candle wax residue is present in the wells.
