About the Item

Rare Set of Four Pairs of 19th C English Brass Sculptural Beehive Candlesticks A rare and visually striking complete set of four matching pairs of English sculptural brass beehive candlesticks, dating to the late 19th century. These period candlesticks, each standing 10 inches high on 4-inch diameter octagonal bases, present a cohesive decorative ensemble ideal for flanking mantels, running the length of a formal dining table, or accenting a collection of antique brassware. Each column is masterfully turned with the signature tiered beehive motif rising from a tapering base, surmounted by a gently flared nozzle. While all eight candlesticks remain fully functional, several have lost their original push-up ejector mechanisms—a common occurrence with authentic 19th-century examples—but retain their charm and usability. The set boasts a warm, untouched antique patina developed over more than a century, bearing marks of use that enhance their historical character. However, should a brighter polish be desired, the brass can easily be cleaned by hand or professionally restored to a more lustrous finish. Scarce to find in such a complete and consistent group, these candlesticks exemplify the enduring appeal of English Victorian brasswork—timeless, sculptural, and ready to bring period ambiance to any traditional or transitional interior.
