Candlelight Sterling 550 3-Light Convertible Candelabra 11" Gorham Silver

Provenance: An elegant mid-century sterling candelabra crafted by Candlelight Silver, a subsidiary of Gorham, known for timeless American silverwork. The unicorn hallmark identifies this as part of Candlelight’s postwar Georgian Revival collection, circa 1945–1955. Description: This convertible three-arm candelabra stands 11 inches tall and 10.5 inches wide, with graceful curved arms and a classic baluster stem. The top assembly detaches for use as a single candlestick, offering versatility for table or mantle display. Materials: Stamped “Sterling Weighted & Re-enforced 550.” Constructed with a thin sterling silver shell over a reinforced cement core, providing stability while retaining a polished sterling exterior. Condition: Displays light surface wear and two small stable cracks near the base, typical of weighted sterling from this era. Both are secure and do not affect stability or appearance when displayed. Retains a bright reflective finish with minor age patina. Era & Style: Circa 1945–1955, Georgian Revival design.
