Christofle Silver-Plated 5-Light Candelabra
A Christofle five-light candelabra in near-mint condition, featuring a timeless, understated design. It stands on a round base with a baluster-shaped stem and four curved arms, each fitted with a cylindrical candle socket and a round drip pan (bobeche).
The smooth, undecorated surface allows the silver-plated finish to take centre stage, giving the piece an elegant and timeless appearance. While Christofle candelabra are not uncommon, five-light examples in such excellent condition are rarely encountered.
Made in France, probably before 2000.
