I'm finally getting around to selling the gorgeous set of candelabras I used on my tables at my wedding!
They are vintage silver plated 3 arm candelabras, and are marked with the name of the manufacturer 'Ianthe'. They measure approx 10" high and just over 10" in width, and weight just under 1kg each. They look fantastic either on their own or dressed by your florist.

I spent 6 months collecting the full set from ebay / antiques shops, and then spent ages cleaning and polishing them. They are of course second hand (someone told me they were originally sold in the 1920s but I don't really know exactly when they date from) and as a result some are in better condition than others. I ended up buying some extras so that I could replace any badly tarnished / missing bits with ones of good condiiton, so all in all they look pretty fantastic. Some of them are missing the green felt that bit fits into the base but you'd never know.
If you need more than 8 you can pick more up on ebay, where they tend to go for about £10-15 each on average - check they've got all the bits first though as i discovered quite a few are missing the bits that the candles actually sit in (none of mine have that missing..)! Some antiques shops sell them too but they usually sell them for £20 plus!
I'd like £100 for the full set of 8, and for that I will wrap and box them, as well as include standard courier delivery within the UK. If you sell them on afterwards it will work out much cheaper than hiring as they won't lose their value!
If you're interested in them please email me on contact at rayneholt dot com, or reply on here!
