About the Item

A magnificent pair of Spanish Colonial Revival torcheres /candle holders, circa 1940, expertly crafted in painted wood with original lanterns fashioned from painted tin. These exquisite pieces stand tall and regal, showcasing the timeless grandeur of early 20th-century design. Their stunning hand-painted detailing, with rich tones of deep red and earthy brown, evokes the elegance of a bygone era. The intricate carving work on the wooden bases features flowing, ornate scrolls and baroque-inspired flourishes, adding a touch of dramatic flair to any space. The matching lanterns perched atop each torch are equally detailed, designed with graceful curves and crowned with decorative finials. Their distressed finish brings character and a sense of history, making them perfect for collectors or those looking to elevate a traditional or eclectic interior. Standing impressively in height, these pieces would be stunning additions to an entryway, flanking a grand fireplace, or used as statement decor in a formal living or dining room. Each torch has a sturdy, ornate base, ensuring stability and presence in any room. Given their age, the wear to the paint is consistent with their vintage status, further enhancing their authentic charm. These torches beautifully capture the essence of Spanish Colonial Revival style, blending rich cultural heritage with classic design. Rare pair of decorative pieces.
