https://www.decorativecollective.com/dealers/aeology-at-relic-antiquesPatent revolving Candy 'Carousel ' from a café, bar or confectionery shop in Italy with 4 large glass Bonbon or Candy Jars which recline in the oval shaped receptacles on the iron arm ring which sits on the painted metal base.
A metal ball-bearing ring which sits between the upper arm ring and the base ensures a very smooth circular spinning motion.
The original makers' plaque is fixed to the base (see photo) 'Fratelli Lodi. Torino'
Circa 1900-1930. 19 inches high overall x 26 diameter. The Carousel dismantles into 4 glass jars with 4 aluminium lids, and cast-iron base, arm ring, top centre pole and small ballbearing ring.
In reasonable useable condition, though the metal lids for the jars are quite worn.
