$125.00
Very Early, PARTICULARLY NICE Original Antique Tin Candle Mold, 6 Tube Size for 6 Candles, w/HANDLEMade by Early Tinsmith c.1790
DESCRIPTION:Scans show it all.....A WONDERFUL, VERY EARLY, VERY LARGE c. 1780 - 1790 tin candle mold from my personal collection.THIS IS AN ORIGINAL COLONIAL ITEM AND NOT A REPRODUCTION AS OFTEN SEEN ON .This one has 6 "tubes" to make 6 candles at a time. Candle molds were quite an improvement and time saver over hand-dipping candles on early farms, but were rather expensive in 1700's money and not too common, especially the larger sizes.It is in excellent condition. Complete with the ORIGINAL SIDE HANDLE. Handles are not often found on many molds available now. It stands 10 3/4" tall x 4" wide x 4 1/2" deep. It has a deep rectangular top, made to hold the tubes in place and facilitate "damming" the wax during pouring. This also provides a dam to hold the wax and keep it from spilling over. At the bottom the tubes are held in place by a similar rectangular bottom rack which also serves as a stand. Each tube is about 7/8" diameter. THIS WAS HANDMADE OUT OF HEAVY TIN PLATE MATERIAL BY AN EARLY NEW ENGLAND TINSMITH AKA "TINNER". Looks very good for its age and is in very good condition overall. Nice aged tin patina. Nice early item. MORE THAN 225+ YEARS OLD!!! Great original colonial decorating item for a mantle/shelf or in a kitchen, family room, or living room display. A REALLY CLEAN, GREAT LOOKING COLONIAL PERIOD CANDLE MOLD!! PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS!!! Please see my sale list for other interesting items!!
