Matched Pair of Small Brass Tapersticks.
England or Continental, Circa 1780.
Each with a curved handle applied beneath the nozzle, ring decoration, a push up ejector with the side latch or 'bolt' system of candle adjustment with four settings and a circular dished base.
Three examples of similar form are illustrated in John Caspall, Fire and Light in the Home pre-1820, (Antique Collectors' Club, 2000), p. 104 fig. 306. Caspall comments that the carrying handles were shaped as such to also act as a hanging hook on a suitable bracket.
