Antique Questions Forum / Brass Cobra Candlesticks
« on: December 05, 2004, 01:33:06 am »
I was wondering if someone here knows or could point me to a site on brass candlesticks shaped like a cobra.
I have a pair of candlesticks and they are painted with an enamel I believe only in the pattern indents all through out the pattern on the cobra, from the tail that curls to make the base up into the hood and then the crown drip dish above the cobra head. The colors used are a black,red,pink and yellow.
I purchased this pair in 1979 in an antique store and they stand 8" and can be unscrewedinto three sections and the wax drip tray makes a 4th piece.
I would appreciate any insight or direction as to where to look. I have taken pictures as well and have them at the following site:
