About the Item
An impressive and unique silver nine-light candelabrum or centrepiece made by the prominent and highly regarded 20th century silversmith, Gerald Benney, in 1976.
The silver candelabrum is formed as seven thistle stems converging to form a sphere of thorns, then spreading out to the nine nozzles in the shape of stylised thistle flowers, all set on a filled ring base. The drip-pans are removable to aid cleaning.
This item is the largest and heaviest piece of Benney silver known to exist and would have been made as a special commission. It is exceptionally heavy at 198 troy oz (6159g) and is in perfect condition.
