    These wall lights were originally attached to a massive overmantel mirror frame.

    A pair of candlesticks designed in around 1864 by White for John Garrett of Bishop’s Court, Devon, is in the collection of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge (M. 3A & B – 1994).  These were first thought to have been made of wrought iron, but are now described as bronze.
