Description

Candlestand. Reproduction neoclassical candlestand has a flat plate at top, slender, dowel-like shaft, a turned urn-shape above the base, and a three - legged pedestal at the base. It measures 46" tall, 20" inches across the base, and 10" across the candle plate. Wood used to construct the stand appears to be oak, but it is heavily grained with red and black paints to lend the appearance of mahogany. A label underneath the candle plate reads "Made in Grand Rapids" and near this the wood is stamped "55". c.1890.
