Antique Gothic Revival Bronze 13 Candle Table or Floor Candelabra with Gargoyles

About the Item

Rare and meaningful, 3 feet tall, bronze Gothic floor candle holder for thirteen candles. This antique, Gothic Revival altar or floor candelabra for thirteen candles is another one of those antiques of which you immediately realize that it ticks all the boxes. Even if it is no longer in perfect condition and even with a few minor restaurations that were done over the many decades, this most certainly is still a great looking church relic and one with a deeper meaning that makes it even more special. The many and pure Gothic Revival elements like the Medieval castle tower candle holders, the many trefoil symbols (for the trinity), the winged Gothic gargoyles (for keeping away bad spirits or bad energy) are just some of these marvelous and very recognizable Gothic features. Perfectly handcrafted in the first quarter of the 1900s this rare and intricate candelabra has exactly the kind of patina that you wish to find on a piece of this age. The heavy quality of the bronze too makes this an impressive church relic to look at. The design of this decorative work of Gothic art is extremely well balanced as well, but it is the deeper meaning of this large size antique that really takes it to the next level (both in meaning and in rarity). Have you noticed how there are 12 candle holder at the same level and then there is one at the top? The twelve candles on the outside (in Christianity) represent the twelve apostles and the one in the middle represents Jesus. In the daytime and even more so in the evenings (with burning candles) this antique Gothic church floor candelabra will never fail to impress. The quality workmanship guarantees that this antique can and will be enjoyed by generations after you as well. If you like this Gothic antique as much as we do then you will love our price. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and worldwide delivery (from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days) are complimentary. Maximum height x diameter: 36.6 x 16.7 inches. Weight: 11 kilogram or 24.2 pounds lbs. We have a passion for the unique, for meaningful, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).

  • Large Gothic Revival Bronze Candelabra Wall Sconces / Candle Sconce w. Gargoyles
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Great quality and very rare, large pair of Gothic Revival sconces for wall mounting. This antique pair of Gothic wall sconces for three lights or three candles each is another one of those antiques of which you immediately know that they are bound to find a new owner soon, because it ticks all the boxes. Perfectly handcrafted in the latter part of the 19th century these rare sconces have exactly the kind of patina that you wish to find on bronze Gothic antiques of this age. The heavy quality of the bronze and brass is right up there with the best you can find and the design of these decorative and meaningful works of Gothic art is extremely well balanced. The many perfect and all handcrafted Gothic elements in these three light candelabras are an absolute joy to look at. To us, the bronze gargoyle sculptures at the bottom are like the icing on the cake. What gargoyles stand for has been and still is subject to debate, but we best like the idea of them being there to frighten away evil spirits and bad energy. Mind you, the wires and the yellow tape that you now see in our photos will all be removed. You, the new owner, get to decide if you want to use them as candle candelabras or if you want us to rewire these sconces for you. We will do so free of charge and to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage upon arrival. When purchased by one of our American clients we will also attach American sockets inside the faux candles and also American power plugs. The four holes in each of the four bronze brackets make these large and impressive wall sconces very easy and safe to mount on your wall also. In the daytime, but especially in the evenings with the faux candles or with real candles burning, these antique Gothic sconces...
