This pair of silver candelabra was crafted by Gorham, a renowned American silver manufacturer known for its high-quality sterling and silver-plated wares. Each candelabrum features a classic design with a tiered circular base, a central column, and three scrolling candle arms. The Gorham hallmark is present, confirming the maker's attribution.
Each candelabrum has a symmetrical arrangement with a central candle holder elevated above two outwardly curved arms, which terminate in additional sockets. The scrolling branches are adorned with subtle decorative flourishes, while the base and column feature stepped and rounded detailing. The silver surface exhibits a soft patina, indicative of age and use.
Gorham, founded in 1831 in Providence, Rhode Island, became one of America’s leading silver manufacturers, producing both solid sterling and silver-plated pieces. The company gained international recognition for its craftsmanship and was a key supplier of silver to prominent families and institutions. These candelabra exemplify the refined, functional designs that characterized Gorham's 19th and early 20th-century output.
