Candlestick and Shade

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows two candlesticks with shades. Two glass candle shades sit atop black metal candlestick holders. The glass shades are clear with a wide mouth narrowing to a smaller base, and have a decorative etched band around the top edge. The metal candlestick holders have a round base, a decorative stem, and a small collar that holds the glass shade in place. Each holder has a short, thick candle with a small notch at the top. The candlesticks sit on a flat surface against a plain background. The image is in black and white. The title of the image is "Candlestick and Shade". The artist is not visually identified in the image.
