Antique Brass Gimbal Chamberstick or Wall Sconce

£125.00Price
  • A Gimbal was originally used on ships, where it could be hung on a wall or used on a tabletop. As the ship swayed, the hinged weighted candleholder also swayed with the motion - ensuring that the candle stayed upright!  A genius design.

    This would make a lovely candle holder for either a table or as a wall sconce.  In an excellent antique condition and good working order.
