For John


You are obviously missing my old posts. What you want is one or two of these.
17th century, like Rachel's cottage.


These are the current ones. Late 18th, early 19th century tavern sticks with ecclesiastical candles. I bloody love them.

    1. I get them from a great ecclesiastical supplier. They burn so much better than cheap ones.

  2. Holes are visible in three of four gold candle sticks. What are they for.
    I prefer the 18/19th century versions. So simple.

    1. All the candlesticks in Poldark were Victorian. It really irritated me.

    2. Oh no! I hope you wrote a letter to complain. Details matter!
