About the Item

This sterling silver five-branch candelabra, crafted in Italy by Gosen, is a handsome example of classic Italian silverwork done the old-fashioned way—balanced proportions, disciplined ornament, and no unnecessary tricks. The design is firmly rooted in the Neoclassical tradition. A fluted central column rises from an oval, stepped base, echoing the lines of an ancient column. From the center stem flow four gracefully scrolling arms, each terminating in a trumpet-shaped candle cup with a finely beaded rim. The fifth candle holder crowns the center, creating a perfectly symmetrical, architectural silhouette that feels intentional and timeless rather than decorative for decoration’s sake. What truly elevates this piece is the quality of the silverwork. The arms are thick, smoothly curved, and well-weighted, giving the candelabra excellent stability and presence. The restrained fluting and beading provide texture without excess—proof that elegance doesn’t need to shout to be heard. The underside bears clear Italian hallmarks, including: “925”, confirming sterling silver purity “STERLING” “ITALY” The maker’s mark Gosen These marks place the piece securely within the tradition of post-war Italian luxury silver, when workshops like Gosen were producing refined, export-quality objects meant to last generations—not seasons. Whether used as a Shabbat centerpiece, a formal dining table accent, or a sculptural object on a sideboard, this five-light candelabra delivers presence, symmetry, and old-world dignity. It’s the kind of piece that looks just as right lit with candles as it does standing quietly in polished repose—because good design, like good silver, never goes out of style.

Antique Sterling Silver Candelabra
Located in Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne
An exceptional, fine and impressive pair of versatile antique English sterling silver three-light candelabra; an addition to our diverse candle holders collection. These exceptional antique cast sterling silver candelabra have a classical square form to a knopped column onto a stepped swept square foot, in the highly desirable classic English style. Each impressive three light candelabrum retains the original hallmarked detachable push fit scrolling leaf decorated arms. The branches (labra) support two circular waisted capitals, each encompassed with bands of applied gadroon decoration. The capitals are fitted with the original hallmarked push fit square-shaped sconces, embellished with an undulating swept decoration. Each capital of these antique candelabra centrepieces surmounts an impressive square drip pan, featuring identical ornamentation to that of the sconces. Each Victorian candelabrum is fitted with a third detachable central elevated capital and drip pan. These versatile three-light Victorian candelabra can be used as silver candlesticks once the arms are detached. The panelled waisted column of each candlestick is encompassed with further undulating ornamentation and gadroon decoration to the knops. The spiralling swept portion of the foot surmounts a plain stepped base, embellished with gadroon decoration to a plain collet style rim. These antique silver candlesticks do not have weighted bases. The base of each candlestick was made by William Brown in 1825 and the labra were crafted by Walker Tolhurst Ltd (Walter Walker Brownfield Tolhurst) in 1896*. These tall sterling silver candelabra, which can be separated into individual candlesticks, are a versatile and sophisticated gift for weddings, anniversaries or milestone occasions. Use them as dramatic centrepieces for candlelit dinners or display the candlesticks individually on a mantel, sideboard or table. * Candlesticks were widely produced and used in the early 19th century, with designs growing more elaborate as moulded candles gained popularity. To accommodate changing tastes, it was not unusual for matching candelabra to be commissioned at a later date, providing versatility and reflecting the Victorian preference for elaborate centrepieces.
