AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Three-armed candelabrum with a ribbed shaft, lobed cups and a ribbed round foot. On the foot sits a row of marks including 925 and an engraving: "Unilever Emory N.V." (reading of the second name not entirely certain) and "3 May 1974". Probably a jubileé or corporate gift; the provenance is not known.
MARKS
On the underside of the foot are several separate marks: "925", a crescent, a crown with cross, a shield with monogram and a small rectangular mark. The maker and country of origin have not been established.
MATERIAL
Silver 925/1000. The foot is filled (with a resin-like filling, presumably) and finished on the underside with green felt. The total weight of 727 grams is therefore not equal to the silver weight.
DIMENSIONS
- Height: 27 cm
- Width across the arms (outer): 26 cm
- Distance between the cups (center to center): 22.5 cm
- Foot diameter: 12 cm
- Inner diameter of candle holders: 2.3 cm (central cup) and 2 cm (arm cups)
- Weight: 727 grams, including filled foot
CONDITION
- Both arms have a slight bend. No cracks observed.
- The cups and arms show small dents, folds and scratches; see the photos.
- There are scratches around the engraving on the foot.
- Dark tarnish in the ribbing and relief areas, normal aging of silver.
- The engraving is clearly legible.
The photos are part of the description. Please examine them closely.
