Silver-Plated Mini Beaded Candlesticks – Pair, 1970s Neo-Georgian, 8 cm

Cast in weighty, silver-plated alloy and finished with a classic beaded edge, these petite candlesticks stand just eight centimetres tall—perfect for intimating candlelight without crowding the table. A slim baluster stem rises from the stepped foot to a flared bobeche sized for standard tapers, while forest-green felt under the base protects polished surfaces.

During the 1970s Britain rediscovered Georgian silver motifs, and electro-plating made them accessible beyond grand households. The beaded border, first popularised by Hester Bateman in the 1780s, returned in hotel-ware and gift-shop editions like these—marrying heritage silhouette with everyday practicality. Flank a cheese board, style them on a mantel, or mix with matte ceramics for a quiet flash of formality.
