The
Copper Gateway - Cordova Alaska Kronheim & Oldenbusch Souvenir
Candlesticks Two vintage candlesticks celebrating Cordova Alaska - the
Copper Gateway. These candle holders are made of spelter and given a
copper/bronze finish. Each candlestick is about 2-1/8" high, and 3-5/8"
across the base. T's an elaborate acanthus design, with an applied
shield. The shield has a panaramic view of (presumably) Cordova, and the
legend - The Copper Gateway Cordova Alaska. The K & O trademark is
embossed on the undersides. The candleholders are also stamped
"Made in USA". Kronheim & Oldenbusch manufactured a variety of
decorative metalware from about 1895; they ceased operations in the
early 1940's. I inherited these from my 87 year old mother and they are in BEAUTIFUL condition. Would be gorgeous in any style of home but especially the ARTS & CRAFTS style from this era. Shipping anywhere in the US is $10 as they are heavy. Be sure to check out my other listings on ebay!
