About the Item

18th century Italian candlestick with amber and aquamarine points on an aquamarine base. The candlestick artifact is originally from a church in Tuscany. It is hand-carved and hand-painted with evergreen and pale green pigments, and orange undercoat showing through. The colors of the candlestick perfectly coordinate with the aquamarine and amber. The Italian church artifact and minerals are put together in a sculptural form - creating a piece that appears to have evolved together over time. Creating a historically significant and yet contemporary piece - interpreting the past to create a piece entirely original, evolving in its own right. The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she created the piece and the period shows that the candlestick is originally 18th century. The Italian church artifact and natural elements are put together in a sculptural form - creating a piece that appears to have evolved together over time. Interpreting the past to create a piece entirely original, evolving in its own right.
