Wrought Iron Rooster Candlestick Holder Horshoe Folk Art

About the Item

For those brave enough to forge a life of light. The rooster lights the day at the crack of dawn to make claims to the work yet to be done. Out from the horseshoe sprouts this lovingly hand crafted rooster. What an incredible gift to arts and crafts this functional sculpture is. A French Western aesthetic perhaps… evoking an incredibly playful atmospheric personality. You will likely never find another cocky pair of candleholders like these ones. One has a mouth opened and the other has their mouth closed so there is strong evidence of compatibility between them as well. The details of the feet and heads are really very impressive - a new cave favourite make sure to get a close look.
