A superb Third Reich candelabra for the German WWII Collector. Decorative items of this quality are quite the rarity and this piece is surely a unique item. A lovely crafted wrought iron piece with oakleaf candle holders, the perfect decoration for a military unit, also bearing engraved shields with ‘GR290’ for Grenadier Regiment 290. See the Wehmacht Lexicon for more information on the Regiment
This item was made for Oberstleutnant Hermann V. im Grenadier Regiment 290. A great size piece, standing approximately 33cm high, interestingly and perfect for the time, four scroll designed legs, in a design we know well in the form of the legs we see in the SS Allach model 89 candle holder. See examples of the Allach each side of the candelabra below.
