A rare and unusual pair of antique candle holders in cobalt blue and white bone china, decorated with a host of tiny, delicate, colourful butterflies and gold trim. The skirt bases are fluted and scalloped, as is the outer candle cup.
In remarkable condition, given their age. The butterflies are still colourful No chips, no cracks, no crazing, just some fading to the gold trim, especially around the cobalt blue edging and more on one than the other candlestick.
Approx 17 cm tall
Base diameter 10.5 cm
