A 19th century Continental silver chamberstick. The chamberstick has a rectangular shape and has four small shell decorations at the four corners of the base. The uniqueness of the chamberstick is the dragon at the center of the chamberstick. Its two feet rest on the base and its head caries the candle holder. The scales and impressive mouth are well designed and the tail makes up the finger holder of the chamberstick. Its 4 ball feet and the style of the nut holding the dragon indicate the mid 19th century and might be of French origin. The snuffer is missing. A mark EHRENBERG 1114 was found beneath the bolt. The chamberstick is 11 cm long, 8 cm wide and 9.7 cm high. It weighs 100 grams.
