Candlestick, 6” high on a 4 ¼” diameter base. Signed HB
Quimper, and that famous 5 ( an artist that connoisseurs look for), ca. 1905.
Really good old candlesticks are so hard to find, we always recommend buying
odd ones for several reasons: 1. A grouping of singles, different shapes,
sizes and periods, is quite stunning on a table, and 2. One never, ever knows
when a mate might show up…then even more combinations are possible. This is a
sturdy beauty, with a finely-drawn seated lady, knitting, and graceful bands of
color outlines above and below. In perfect condition (we did leave the candle
wax in the cup at the top, nice to see that this was well-used). $300, plus $10
shipping.
