PAIR OF NEO-CLASSICAL STERLING SILVER CANDLESTICKS, SHEFFIELD, 1979

A fine pair of Elizabeth II sterling silver candlesticks, hallmarked for Sheffield, 1979, by the esteemed makers Roberts & Belk. Executed in the refined Neo-Classical style, each candlestick features a slender, multi-knopped stem rising from a substantial stepped square base with distinctive incurved corners. Eschewing ornate decoration for a cleaner aesthetic, the design relies on its elegant silhouette and the high-polish finish of the silver to create a sense of timeless sophistication. The bases are weighted for stability, reflecting the superior craftsmanship of 20th-century British silversmithing while honoring 18th-century architectural proportions.
