Vintage Silver Plate Go-To-Bed Chamberstick Matchbox Holder Candle Holder

Before bedside lamps were everywhere, a go-to-bed chamberstick let you carry a candle upstairs with a box of matches right beside it. This little vintage piece keeps that tradition: a flared taper candle socket sits on a rectangular open-ended sleeve made to hold a matchbox, with a looped finger handle for carrying. It would be at home on a nightstand, a mantel or a vintage candle holder collection, or lit again for a cozy evening.

Details

• The holder is plated metal in a silver tone, light at about 1.7 oz, and stands on four domed feet.
• The sleeve fits a standard box of matches (matchbox not included).
• The socket takes a standard taper candle.

Condition: Plating is worn through to a brassy tone in places, with some tarnish, and there is a small green spot of verdigris on the rim of the candle socket. Some wax residue remains in the cup. See photos for the wear.

Please note: Flaws: Little bit of rusting.

The photos are part of the description, and it will be packed with care.
