A refined monofiamma silver candlestick in 800 silver with a slender shaft and a richly worked square base with lion-paw feet, combining Neoclassical/Empire-inspired styling on top with Baroque or eclectic late 19th‑century detailing, dating to circa 1910–1920 (with 1930–1940 elements), measures 20 cm high by 14 cm wide and 14 cm deep, and weighs 514 g gross in good used condition with minor signs of age and spots.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This object is a refined single-wick candlestick (or antique oil lamp holder) made in silver 800, characterized by a slender, finely worked shaft. The structure combines elements from different eras: the upper part shows clean lines typical of Neoclassicism or the Empire style, while the rich square base is relief-decorated with lion paw feet, volutes and palmette motifs that recall Baroque style or the eclectic taste of the late nineteenth century. Silver 800 indicates an alloy containing 80% pure silver and 20% copper, a traditional Italian composition particularly resistant, ideal for silverware items for use and decor skillfully repoussé or chased by hand.
Weight 514 gross; I cannot quantify the weight of just the silver, stone inside the base

Silver tested for regular sale, withdrawn from the precious metals sales register
