An attractive Ashford black inlaid marble Pietra Dura candlestick dating from the mid-19th century. Ashford, based in the Derbyshire Peak District produced some of the finest Pietra Dura items using many locally sourced semi precious stones including Malachite, Rosso, Siena, Pudding, Connemara, Oakstone along with others which are featured in the inlay decoration on this stylish piece. These contrast beautifully with the polished black marble body and the candlestick is not marked. In good usable condition with a chip under the foot rim and some surface wear, scratches and marks customary to use and age.
