This pair of massively cast brass candle scones of elegant form dates from the middle to late 1700s and is most likely English or Dutch. Each measures 8 ¾ x 12 deep x 3 1/8 wide with 3 ¼ round bobeche that have delicate beaded details on the underside. Their backs have ground, square sprues and peened joints attaching the engine turned socket-knobs with squared holes that support the sigmoid arms with prominent spurs. As you study the images, note that the threads are hand formed and do not match identically; neither do the squared socket holes or the tapered ends of the arms and arms and backs are NOT interchangeable. App 50 years ago, the pair was subjected to a regrettable abrasive cleaning: a proper professional polishing will removes the scratches a restore a more appropriate period surface sheen.
