About the Item

An exquisite example of early Victorian metalwork! This single brass candlestick was crafted in England circa 1840. Elegantly proportioned, the piece features a finely turned baluster stem rising from a broad circular foot, culminating in a wide drip pan and candle cup. The subtle variations of form along the shaft create a sculptural form, showcasing the refined artistry of 19th-century brass turning. The surface has developed a soft, time-worn patina that enhances its golden luster, lending warmth and authenticity to its presence. Both functional and decorative, this candlestick is equally at home as a refined accent on a dining table, mantel, or console, or as part of a curated collection of antique brassware. Its understated elegance and classic lines make it a versatile choice for interiors ranging from traditional English country houses to modern, design-forward settings seeking a touch of historic character.
