Large Brass Candle Holder, circa 1780 – 1800

This is a nice early candle holder being offered. It is solid brass and measures 7 ¼” x 6 ½” x 5” high, circa 1780 – 1800. At one time there would have been a small adjusting lever on the side of the tube, but like with many of these older examples, it is now gone. The finger ring may have had something else attached to it. Overall, this is a nice solid piece and would fit in nicely with a Revolutionary or Civil War collection.
