About the Item

This grand 17th-century German wrought iron church candelabrum is a magnificent example of the era’s evolving ironwork techniques, where craftsmanship and artistic expression merged to create objects of both function and beauty. Standing 110 cm tall with a diameter of 48 cm, this impressive floor-standing chandelier features eighteen lights, designed to cast a warm and atmospheric glow. The intricate scrollwork and delicate volutes, emblematic of the period, showcase the blacksmith’s skill in transforming iron into fluid, almost weightless forms. These elegant flourishes were not merely decorative but also symbols of status and prosperity, often found in sacred and prestigious settings. A rare and refined statement piece, this candelabrum brings historical grandeur and timeless sophistication to any space—whether illuminating a chapel, grand entryway, or intimate salon, it embodies the artistry and spirit of a bygone era.
