Portable Candlestick (Primary Title)
Unknown (Artist)
This miniature candlestick has a tripod base with three bent supports terminating in animal heads. The legs are stacked so that they can be fanned out to support the square central column when in use. The surface of the legs is decorated with fleurs-de-lis, shields, and other motifs. Traces of enamel appear on the bottom portions.
