Description: | The portion of the candlestick which remains is branch and holder of a double socket type. The holder is a circular-section cylinder with a slightly curved base on the interior. The exterior of the holder has a slightly thickened lip, and a series of intermittent high-relief rings around the holder. The exterior of the base tapers and is seated on a circular disc. Protruding from this disc is the branch which is curved forming a 'C' shape with a broken spur at the base. This spur, which would have joined the holder to the body of the candlestick was not broken recently. The item has a dark-mid green patina with patches of a red coloured corrosion. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1475
