Set Of 2 Antique Brass Candlestick Holders British Registry Stamped "Ro 223580" Queen Anne Era, Antique, c.1893 Hand-Polished And Beautiful Excellent Condition No chips stains cracks Selling OBO There is an internal mechanism that still works, see video. A rod passes through the body that acts as a plunger. It drives the used-up candles up and out of their seat, far easier than digging the wax out of a metal cup. One of these still has a disc at the bottom end of the rod and one does not but they still both function. Please see our store for similar items.
