Color photograph of candlestick taken from an elevated viewpoint. Metallic (electroplated silver) inverted cone-shaped body with angled wide-rimmed circular mouth sits on a cross-form base. A circular/tube decorated at the top with 3 tiers of discs, rises from the center of the body. It appears to rise above the rim. A little of the interior of the tube (where the candle would sit) is visible. Overall, has a modern sleek appearance based on pure geometric shapes - cylinder, cone, triangle and square.
