About the Item
This pair of 19th-century English brass candlesticks embodies the charm and ingenuity of a bygone era. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these candlesticks feature bells suspended within their elegantly turned columns, a distinctive design element that served a practical and festive purpose in their historical setting. The wide, wax-catching discs not only enhance their functionality but also contribute to their dramatic silhouette, making them a striking addition to any collection.
