About the Item

Exquisitely handcrafted in 19th-century Italy, this stunning pair of carved wood candlesticks showcases the artistry and elegance of the period. Originally designed as altar prickets, these pieces have been carefully converted into decorative candelabra-style sconces, featuring two candle arms per piece with faux wax-dripped candle sleeves, adding an authentic aged charm. The richly carved wooden bases are inspired by the organic fluidity of Rococo and Baroque design, with gracefully curved forms, layered detailing, and remnants of original gilded accents that highlight the intricate sculptural elements. The upper sections boast finely pierced floral and foliate motifs, lending a delicate, lace-like effect to the warm patina of the wood. Perfect for adding historic character to a space, these Italian candlesticks can be styled as tabletop décor, mantel accents, or mounted as dramatic wall sconces. Whether placed in a traditional European-inspired interior or an eclectic mix of old and new, their timeless beauty and craftsmanship make them a rare and sophisticated find.
