Like the candlesticks we shared earlier this week, this elegant pair of American Arts & Crafts candlesticks have a botanical inspiration. The "cups" resemble tulip buds, just ready to open. The shafts reflect tapered, tightly-bundled tulip stems. And the "bobeches" are cut into a scalloped, petal-form shape. The entire candlestick is hand-hammered and silver-plated. They were made in Meriden, Connecticut around 1910. Click on the photo above to learn more about these handsome candlesticks.
