This silver chamber candlestick, crafted by John Parker in 1762-1763, is a fine example of 18th-century English silversmithing. The octagonal tray and the slender candlestick with a circular drip pan are adorned with intricate details and a rope-like design. The chamber candlestick, designed for holding a candle, is a functional yet elegant piece that reflects the craftsmanship of the period. It is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
