Candlestick

Edward Winslow

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a pair of silver candlesticks with octagonal bases. The bases are flat and have a curved lip around the edge. A square engraving is on the front of each base. The stems of the candlesticks are shaped like a series of connected spheres and cylinders. The top of each candlestick has a small cylindrical opening. The background is gray and gets darker towards the top. The candlesticks are titled "Candlestick" by Edward Winslow.
