Pair of George III Antique Silver Candlesticks made in 1764
A pair of fine early George III silver cast candlesticks which stand on square-shaped bases with shell motifs on each corner.
They both bear a contemporary family crest of a hunting dog and are in excellent crisp condition.
One candlestick is marked no 1 and the other no 6, indicating that they would have been part of a larger set (almost certainly a set of six).
They are both marked at the top of the capitals with the maker’s mark and standard mark, and are very well hallmarked on the base.
A good set of 18th century candlesticks by the well known candlestick and salver maker, Ebenezer Coker.
Dimensions: height 21 cm; weight 26 troy oz.
Ebenezer Coker, apprenticed to Joseph Smith 1728, free 1740. Worked in Clerkenwell.
First mark entered 1738. Second mark 1739. Third mark 1745. Fourth mark 1751. Fifth mark c. 1758. Another mark was entered in partnership with Thomas Hannam, 1759. Bankrupt by 1781 and died on 2 August 1783.
Specialist candlestick and salver maker. His work is always of a high standard.
