Belleek Dolophin Candlestick - 150th Anniversary Archive Collection
SKU: B0941
The Belleek Archive Collection is being introduced as part of Belleek Pottery's celebration of one hundred and fifty years of manufacturing porcelain with distinction. Each one of the 15 pieces in this collection symbolically represents every ten years of the Pottery's history. It celebrates the many hands that have forged the success of Belleek from its origins in 1857 to the present day. To make this introduction special, every item is a limited edition piece and will be individually numbered up to the end of the edition. The Dolphin Candlestick is fashioned in the style known as cherub or "Putti" figurines, popular in the 1860's. Uncovered in Belleek's master mould archive, this piece is numbered "125," indicating that it was, most likely, designed around 1868. It is listed as one of the many pieces displayed at the Paris Exhibition in 1900. By the 1920s it had been discontinued, and remained in the archives for the following 60 years, making a brief appearance in the early 1980s. Dolphin Candlestick (Price is for One candlestick only) measures 7.5 inches tall and has a limited edition of 400 worldwide. 1 left in stock. Original Price $395.00 Belleek |
