The candelabra resting on triform altar bases resting on three scrolling acanthus feet interspersed with flowering trellis with quatrefoil flowers and beautiful spraying shells. The acanthus growing up the pearl edged bases to form ovoid cartouches engraved with scripted and intertwined initials The elegant figures of Venus sitting holding acanthus cornucopia and from these horns of plenty the floral acanthus branches of the candelabra burst scrolling upwards to support the flowering capitals which sit on top of the floral drip pans. The central finial of the candelabra formed as a blossoming sprig of flowers.
