Candlestick

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Silver candlestick holder, titled "Candlestick" by an unknown artist. The image shows two identical candlesticks side by side. The candlesticks are made of metal, likely silver, and have a shiny surface. They are tall and slender with a round base that has a scalloped edge. The base is wide and flat, with a series of curved shapes around the edge. The stem of each candlestick is long and thin, with a series of decorative rings and a wider section in the middle. The top of each candlestick is narrower and has a small lip around the edge, where a candle would be placed. The background of the image is light gray.
