This is what I got from AI


The "S" and "22" marks on a silver or silver-plated candelabra typically refer to a manufacturer's maker's mark and a specific design catalog or size number.

Because many mid-century and vintage English manufacturers stamped production numbers on their heavily ornate silverware pieces, these marks help narrow down the style:


Common Interpretations of the "S" and "22" Markings

* The "S" Maker's Mark: On English silver plate or Electroplated Nickel Silver (EPNS) pieces, an "S"often stands for a specific workshop or silversmith brand (such as Barker-Ellis or I.S. Greenberg) or a system stamp designating the region or specific production line. [

* The "22" Catalog/Size Number: In vintage manufacturing, numbers like 22 stamped on the underside of a candelabra base or on the detachable arm system usually designate a catalog model pattern number or the total height of the piece in centimeters (e.g., 22 cm to 23 cm heights are standard for three-arm dining centerpieces).


This silver-plated candelabra appears to be in a Georgian or Rococo style, featuring ornate floral or grapevine motifs. Similar pieces are often manufactured by companies like Sheffield Silver Co. or 1847 Rogers Bros. [1, 2, 3, 4]

* Style: Likely Georgian Neo-Rococo, characterized by sinuous arms and intricate embossed decoration.

* Material: Generally silver-plated hollowware
