An uncommon form. The candle-socket with upswept bobeche at nozzle above a tall stem with brass knob accommodating the candle lifting device; the appropriately proportioned upswept mid-drip pan designed to collect splashed melted wax. The large sand-weighted, seamed conical-base with low center of gravity was nearly impossible to knock over which was a great benefit to fire safety within homes, shops and offices for which they were designed.

Item Date: Early 19th Century
