Sixteenth Century Socket Candlestick, High Integral-Drip Base Form

Northwest Europe, Probably Flemish/Netherlandish Origin

The unusual shaft with three knops, above a circular two stage spreading, typical Gothic base, domed at center.

Date: Circa 1500

Measurement: Height: 9.25"; Base Diameter: 4.5"

Material: Copper Alloy

Condition: Very good; the tang joining two parts has been revised... it is domed. Most always the shaft and base are joined by a tang extending from the shaft piercing top center of the base... then peened and turned. The subject tang extends through the piercing, the turning is rounded rather than being turned flat and lacks turning marks.
