Thank you for noticing this sweet old Derby candlestick figure of a young gentleman with his little dog beside him. The holder on the candlestick is sadly missing, however. I have always used him as a companion to the other candlestick figure I'm listing as I truly though they were a pair, and I did plan to list them as such. The photographs show, though, that he is a little larger than she, so I will list them separately. I have always thought they did make a nice pair, but will leave it up to the bidders to decide.He has a pretty little face and is holding a small bouquet of flowers in one hand and holding onto the candlestick base with the other. The bocage is in super condition. T is no restoration and all is intact except the holder for the candle. Even the very minor chipping on the bocage truly isn't noticeable. The piece is 6 1/2" or so high and the top of the his head is about 6" high. He is a very nice and very honest example.I always combine postage, too, for multiple auctions whenever it is possible.
