Director's Choice - Baron Arundell’s Exceptional Candlesticks

These exquisite 17th Century candlesticks are so beautiful in their ‘French style’ and historically interesting with their association with Baron Arundell that they are truly worthy of note in this weeks Director’s Choice. To have graced the bedchamber at Wardour Castle, if indeed part of a more extensive toilet service and to bear the hallmark of Jean Gerard Cooqus is quite remarkable. So few pieces outside the royal collection bear the touch mark of this exceptional goldsmith. The quality is to be noted too with the candlesticks weighing some 43 oz 1 dwt.
