- Two-Light Candlestick
impressed TIFFANY STUDIOS/NEW YORK
- patinated bronze
with snuffer and bobeches
Provenance
Acquired from Macklowe Gallery, New York, by the present owner, 2005
Condition
Overall in very good condition. The patinated bronze surfaces with a few minor surface abrasions and light rubbing to the patina consistent with age and gentle use. The diagonally vertical stem supporting the snuffer appears very subtly out of line. With period snuffer, which has some minor surface wear and abrasions to the top finial, and with period bobeches. With surface soiling inside the candle cups, and below on the interior of the three-pronged setting supporting the candle cups. A rare candlestick form with strong sculptural presence.
