    The main difference between candlesticks and candleholders is the number of candles they can hold. A candlestick is a type of candleholder that has a socket or spike to hold one single candle. A candleholder can hold more than one candle. Shop a selection of candlesticks and candleholders on 1stDibs.

    To tell if a candlestick is silver, first look for metal purity hallmarks often positioned on the bottom of the piece. Silver purity markings vary from country to country, and you can find reference guides on trusted online resources that can help you determine what the hallmark on your piece represents. Researching the maker can also be beneficial. If you find that the company or artisan only produced silver wares, you can feel reasonably sure that your candlestick is silver. Another option is to place a magnet near the candlestick. Silver isn't magnetic, so a candlestick that sticks to a magnet is either silver-plated or crafted from an entirely different material. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer evaluate your candlestick to determine its material. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of silver candlesticks.
