Vintage Reed & Barton “King Francis” 5-Light Convertible Candelabra – Model 1630
Elegant and substantial mid-century silverplate candelabra in the highly sought after King Francis pattern by Reed & Barton. This is the larger five-light, four-arm convertible form, with removable top section so the base may also be used as a single candlestick.
Beautifully detailed with the classic King Francis Renaissance fruit, scroll, and shell ornamentation throughout.
The underside is impressed:
REED & BARTON
1630
A wonderful formal dining or centerpiece piece — these were originally marketed as wedding/entertaining silver and display beautifully on a table or mantle.
Measurements:
• Height: 15.75 inches
• Width (arm spread): approx. 12 inches
Condition:
Very good vintage condition with normal age-appropriate surface wear consistent with use. Light tarnish present; may polish to a brighter finish if desired.
