Metal candlestick with a wide, flat base that tapers into a cylindrical body. The top of the cylinder has a flared lip. A small metal handle or clip protrudes from the right side of the cylinder, about halfway down. A small metal tab protrudes from the right side of the base. The entire object appears to be made of a dark metal, possibly pewter or tin, with a dull finish and visible signs of wear and aging. The background is a plain gray color.
