Chamber candlestick
Not on view
Hand or chamber candlesticks were designed to be portable for carrying around the house and to light one’s way to the bed chamber. Such pieces were usually made with an ample handle and pan or saucer to catch the melting wax. Here, the ring on the handle provides additional stability, while its curves as well as the shaped outline of the of the pan are indications of the rococo style.
