Larger candlesticks became an important output of South Staffordshire enamellers in the 1770s and 1780s. This unusual pair follow more closely the form of contemporary silver shapes by silversmiths like Ebenezer Coker, with a focus of gadrooned edges and spiralling motifs. The attractive green decoration recalls English porcelain decoration at this time, which featured Chinese flowers issuing from hollow rockwork.
