Brass candlelabra 1900's w/French influence
This brass candleabra was a gift to Jack Bagdasar form a friend. Jack passed on about 25 years ago. It has an octagonal base that is about 7 1/2". It holds 7 candles. The width of the candle holders is about 12". It weighs 9.77 pounds.The 3 sets of two candle holders are 4", 8" and 12" width. I have included notes and opinions, including an informal appraisal from 1998.
This was given to Jack Bagdasar from a friend. It could be of Greek Orthadox origin & is apparently not a Jewish candleabra.
