From the 1820s onward, mechanical pressing let ordinary households own glass that looked cut, and the deep geometric vocabulary of diamonds, fans, hobnails, and buttons that appears on this piece descends directly from the Daisy and Button and diamond-point patterns that carried the trade through the nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example belongs to the twentieth-century revival of that vocabulary. Through the 1960s and 1970s the American pressed-glass houses turned out enormous quantities of small footed votives, compotes, and nut dishes in colored glass — amber above all, alongside avocado and smoke — reviving the old molds and patterns for a generation decorating in earth tones. It carries no maker's mark, which is normal for the form: pressed glass of this kind was identified by a paper label at the register, and those labels almost never survived the first wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"8\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eField\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eObject\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFooted votive holder; equally a small rose bowl or catch-all\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAmerican pressed glass; unmarked\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRounded body on a short scalloped foot, with an inturned scalloped rim; press-molded in one piece\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAmber-tinted pressed glass in an all-over diamond-and-fan pattern with crosshatched diamond fields\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnmarked; originally paper-labeled, as pressed glass of the period typically was\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ec. 1960–1980\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExcellent.

The hide is worked all over in fine wrinkling that follows the muscle, the ears are separately formed and stand proud of the skull with the vein structure showing, the tusks curve out and up, and each face carries a modelled eye under a heavy brow. The trunks are raised in a full curl with the fingered tip open at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe howdahs are banded in a \u003cstrong\u003eGreek key\u003c\/strong\u003e fret, and seated inside each is a \u003cstrong\u003egilt metal cup\u003c\/strong\u003e — a separate bright gold insert, press-fitted into the moulded rim, which is what a candle actually sits in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe finish is a warm cream, matte and lightly chalky, with a darker wash settled into the wrinkles and recesses so the modelling reads from a distance. It is made to suggest carved ivory or old bone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe undersides of the feet are flat-cut and plain, with small green felt pads applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Provenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe subject carries real meaning and it is worth knowing which way round it goes. An elephant with its \u003cstrong\u003etrunk raised\u003c\/strong\u003e is the lucky one — across South and Southeast Asian custom and the Western decorating tradition that borrowed it, an upraised trunk is read as showering good fortune, while a lowered trunk is held to be storing it up. Both of these have their trunks up, which is the configuration people specifically look for and the reason elephants like these are given as housewarming and wedding gifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe howdah — the carriage seat on the back — is the detail that turns an elephant figure into a candle holder, and it is drawn from the real thing: the framed seat strapped over a working elephant across India and Siam. The Greek key band around it is European ornament rather than Asian, which is a fair signal on its own that these are decorative objects in the Orientalist manner rather than anything made within that tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe construction is straightforward and we would rather set it out plainly. \u003cstrong\u003eThese are cast resin\u003c\/strong\u003e, not carved, not ceramic, and not bone or ivory of any kind. Mould seams run down the trunk and along the body, the two figures are identical in every modelled detail, and the material is a light, dense poly-resin taking a painted and washed finish on the surface. The gilt candle cups are separate metal inserts seated into the moulded rims, and the feet carry modern green felt pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThere is \u003cstrong\u003eno maker's mark, foundry stamp, or label\u003c\/strong\u003e anywhere on either figure, and the pair is not attributed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eCast resin gives very little to date from — it does not patinate, corrode, craze or wear the way clay, wood or metal do, so the usual evidence is simply absent. What the material, the applied felt pads and the inserted metal cups together support is later twentieth-century into recent decorative production, given here as \u003cstrong\u003ec. 1990–2020\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Unlit, these are a pair of figures with real modelling in them — the wrinkled hide and the standing ears read from across a room.

Cream and gold is an easy pairing: it sits with brass, warm wood, black metal, marble, plaster walls and any amount of pattern without arguing with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAnd the trunks-up detail makes them a specific gift rather than a vague one — a housewarming, a wedding, or anyone who collects elephants, which is a surprisingly large group of people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA note on care and use, and the first part is a safety matter. \u003cstrong\u003eResin is not heat-proof.\u003c\/strong\u003e Use only a candle that sits fully inside the metal cup, never let one burn down to the rim, and never leave one burning unattended — a flame allowed to reach the resin can soften, scorch, or deform it.

Keep them well away from anything that can catch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eFor cleaning, dust with a dry soft brush worked into the wrinkling, where dust settles and a cloth cannot reach. If they need more, wipe with a barely damp cloth and dry immediately — do not soak them, and use no solvent or abrasive cleaner, which will cut straight through a painted resin surface and take the wash out of the recesses with it. Lift the metal cups out to clear spilled wax rather than picking at it in place; warm water will release the rest.

Every colour on the front of this candlestick is on the bottom of it — green, yellow, pink — which is as direct a piece of evidence as decorated ceramics offers.

And the twentieth century took it back up repeatedly — in the 1930s, and hard again through the later decades, when British Colonial and Hollywood Regency decorating made palm-form lamps, candlesticks and tables a staple of the good furniture trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pair belongs to that decorative line rather than to the architectural one. They are made the way quality cast lighting hardware has been made for a very long time: separate castings stacked on a threaded rod and drawn up tight, which lets a maker combine a base, a stem and a crown from different moulds and finish the assembly as one object. Felt on the underside is the same instinct — these were made to stand on polished furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frond holes are worth noting honestly. Ten to a crown, even in size and position, they are a deliberate feature of the casting rather than later damage, and they would carry hanging drops. Whether they ever did is not established here and no drops are present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn date, the construction and finish carry it and neither carries it far. Rod-assembled castings, a copper-toned patinated finish with verdigris grown into the recesses, and felted bases are the practice of the decorative metal trade across a long span. The wear is real: the felt is worn through where the sticks have stood, the frond tips and the base rim are rubbed back to lighter metal, and the verdigris has grown in the protected recesses rather than been painted on. On that evidence the pair is offered as c. 1950–1990.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeither stick carries a maker’s mark or a country of origin. One base carries inked inventory marks from a previous owner or dealer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing is left open rather than guessed. The alloy has not been verified. The colouring is a copper-toned patinated finish, and where the high points are rubbed a lighter metal shows beneath it, which is consistent with more than one body metal. A magnet, a weight and a clean look at bare metal would settle it, and a solid copper alloy would place this pair materially higher than it is offered at here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eObject\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePair of cast palm-tree candlesticks with frond crowns forming the drip pans\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeparate castings — domed base, tapered trunk, ten-frond crown — drawn together on a central rod, with a collar at each junction and a machined bushing through the base.

This one is a picture of something, and it stays legible from across a room: trunk, bark, crown, the fronds lifting at different angles the way real ones do. It carries a table on its own without needing anything arranged around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLit, the crown does the work. The fronds catch the flame from below and throw a spoked shadow up a wall, and because the ten of them sit at slightly different heights the shadow is uneven and alive rather than a flat star.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour is the easy part. Copper-brown with green standing in the recesses is a palette that agrees with almost everything — dark wood, painted furniture, rattan, brass, limewash — and reads as warm in a way that polished metal does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pair matters more with candlesticks than with almost anything else. Two flanking a mirror, a mantel, a pair of books or the ends of a table give you symmetry, and a single candlestick spends its life looking for its partner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey suit a British Colonial room, a conservatory, a green-painted library, a coastal house, or a modern interior where two dark sculptural objects are doing all the decorating. Out of candle season they read as bronzes and stay on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the frond holes are an invitation.

Dust with a soft dry brush into the bark lattice, which holds it. Do not polish, do not use metal cleaner and do not wash them: the verdigris in the recesses and the rubbed high points are the whole character, and a cleaner would strip in minutes what took decades to arrive.

The lower body is a cylinder carrying a relief frieze in panels, each panel divided from the next by a narrow pilaster of acanthus scrollwork. Above it the wall draws in through a deep waist and opens again into a wide flared socket. The proportions are compact and top-heavy in a deliberate way, with the mass at the foot and the eye pulled up the curve to the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frieze carries two scenes. In the first, a woman rides sidesaddle in a Hardanger bridal crown, her horse led by a man playing a fiddle as he walks, with a stave church spire rising behind them and figures in bunad standing along the road. In the second, a rowing boat crosses open water crowded with wedding guests, oars out, one figure standing with arms raised at the centre of the boat. The two panels are the two halves of the same journey, over land and over water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe finish is the traditional one for Norwegian relief pewter: the recesses darkened almost to black and the raised surfaces left bright, so that at this scale the figures read clearly instead of dissolving into grey. The neck and rim are turned smooth and have taken a soft polish. Inside the socket the metal is torn and there is an open void beside the central boss, and the maker's mark is stamped on that boss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Provenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene is Brudeferden i Hardanger, the Bridal Procession on the Hardangerfjord, and it is the most recognisable image in Norwegian art. Hans Gude and Adolph Tidemand painted it together in 1848. The two had met in Hardanger in 1843, both trained at the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf, and they worked the picture up over the winter of 1847 and 1848: Gude, then twenty-three, painted the fjord and the mountains, and Tidemand, a decade older, painted the wedding party. The original hangs in the National Gallery in Oslo, which acquired it in 1895, and the two men went on to make at least five versions of the subject around 1850.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat the painting did was fix an image of Norway for Norwegians. It arrived at the height of romantic nationalism, when a country still in union with Sweden was assembling a picture of itself out of its own landscape, its own dress and its own music, and it has been reproduced ever since on everything from banknotes and stamps to the sides of small pewter objects like this one. A maker putting the bride and the fiddler on a candle holder in the twentieth century was not inventing a decoration; he was quoting the national picture, and every Norwegian buyer knew it on sight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mark stamped inside the socket reads NORSK TINN, Norwegian for Norwegian pewter, around a small shield device. The device does not resolve clearly enough to attribute the workshop and no maker is claimed here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dating rests on the object rather than the image, since the image has been in use since 1848. The cast one-piece body, the blackened relief against burnished high points, the turned neck and the felted base all match Norwegian relief pewter documented to the 1950s and 1960s, of which the best known are the Mastad Pewter candle holders of closely comparable size and construction. The mark is in Norwegian rather than an English export legend, and there is no barcode, printed label or moulded country line anywhere on the piece, all of which carry a ceiling only.

The glasshouses of what is now the Czech Republic have been cutting lead crystal since the seventeenth century, and by the nineteenth they had taken the technique further than anyone, building an export trade on deeply cut colourless metal that could be sold anywhere in the world. That industry survived the twentieth century largely intact, and it is still the reason a candle holder made there outweighs and outcuts one made almost anywhere else at the same price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe label dates the set precisely at one end and not at all at the other, and it is worth being plain about both. It reads Czech Rep. and République Tchèque. The Czech Republic did not exist until 1 January 1993, when Czechoslovakia divided, and a piece made before that would be labelled Czechoslovakia. So this set cannot predate 1993, full stop. Nothing on it fixes the other end, so the ceiling rests only on the fact that it has been out of retail long enough to reach the secondary market. On that evidence it is offered as c. 1993 to 2005.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe label is bilingual in English and French, which is a North American retail convention driven by Canadian packaging requirements, so the set was imported for that market rather than bought abroad.

Three slender stems rise from a common root, each bent on its own line and stopped at its own height, so the three flames stand at three levels rather than in a row. The base is a splayed tripod of flattened bar drawn to a taper and finished in rounded paddle ends, crossing at the centre where the stems fold down into a fork and join it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery element is hand-worked and separately made. The stems carry hammer facets and file marks along their length and no two curves repeat. Each one ends in a thin circular drip pan of warm golden metal, brass or bronze, with a plain rolled-rim socket standing on it, and at magnification the socket is joined to the pan by a raised solder fillet that has flowed and pooled the way hand soldering does. The stems are a different and paler metal from the pans, so the piece is an assembly of dissimilar parts joined at the bench, not a casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface carries a green patina that is grown rather than applied. On the drip pans, brass shows warm and bare in places while pale mint and turquoise corrosion sits in raised crystalline patches beside it, the uneven pattern that copper alloys make over long exposure rather than the even film a finisher would lay down. On the stems the green has rubbed through to bright metal along the outer curves and the upper faces of the feet, where hands have taken it. The piece stands square on all three feet and every socket is clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Provenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vocabulary is Art Nouveau. Whiplash stems that behave like shoots, a base that reads as a root system, asymmetry treated as the organising idea rather than a defect: this is the language of organic metalwork around the turn of the twentieth century, and it is a different language from the heavier, blockier sculptural metalwork of the mid-century, which this piece is sometimes mistaken for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction supports the reading. Soldered brass fittings on forged stems of another metal is bench practice, several parts made separately and brought together by hand, and it is not how mid-century production candle holders were built, those being welded in steel or cast in one piece. The corrosion supports it too. Raised crystalline blooms beside bare brass are accreted over decades; an applied finish goes on evenly and does not grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo maker's mark appears on any surface photographed, and that limit is worth stating plainly. An absence of a mark sets a ceiling and never a floor, so the date here rests on the combination of idiom and construction rather than on documentary evidence, which is the weaker of the two kinds of argument. On that basis it is offered as c. 1900–1925, the working life of the organic idiom in hand-wrought metal before Deco geometry displaced it. A signature would fix it, and the places to look are the underside of the base and the undersides of the three drip pans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree-light candelabrum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhiplash stems on a splayed root base, staggered heights\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForged stems with brass or bronze drip pans and sockets, soldered\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAccreted green verdigris, rubbed to bright metal on the handled surfaces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSockets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree, sized for standard tapers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ec. 1900–1925\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone found on the surfaces examined\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 in.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase Spread\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 in.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSound and stable, standing square on all three feet.

The silhouette is unusual and it is most of what makes the object. A stout straight-sided cylinder runs down from the top for roughly half the height, then draws in hard to a slim waist, then flares back out into a rounded shoulder. Everything below that shoulder is ornament: a collar of deeply cut triangular lappets, a drum carved in high relief, and two more stacked bands of chip-carved lappets forming the foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top is a broad flat face with the candle socket bored straight down into the centre of it, a plain round hole rather than a turned cup. Old pale wax is still sitting down inside. The paint is chipped around the socket rim and around the outer edge of that top face, which is precisely where a candle gets pushed in and levered back out, year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relief is the reason to own it. A bold scroll closes into a tight volute with a ribbed leaf springing out of it, and beside it a large open flower with layered rounded petals sits above a rectangular element cut with a crosshatched grid. The carving is properly undercut, the scroll tips standing clear of the ground and throwing shadow behind them. Between the motifs the background is punched with a dense field of tiny dots, a technique called matting, which a carver uses to knock the ground back so the relief reads sharply against it. It is a slow extra step and a skilled one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe green is a later coat, brushed on thick and glossy. It has flowed down into the punched dots of the matted ground, which is how you know it went on after the carving was finished. It chips at the arrises to warm reddish-brown wood underneath, and the losses run with the grain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Provenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything about the surface says hand work. The undercutting cannot come from a press or a mould, because the tool has to reach in behind the form to make it. The matted ground is punched dot by dot with a small pointed tool, and the dots sit irregularly rather than in a mechanical grid. Through the twentieth century a great deal of decorative woodwork was cut on router duplicators, which leave a regular repeating tooling signature across every copy; there is none of that here. This was carved by a person with a chisel and a punch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was also used, and not gently. The wax in the socket and the paint worn off around its rim are the record of that, and they are worth more than any amount of speculation about where it sat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ornament is worth reading carefully, because it sits in two registers at once. The scrolling foliate relief on a matted ground is the refined end of the trade, the sort of thing a trained carver does. The chip-carved lappet bands framing it above and below are simple repeating knife and chisel strokes, the plainest ornament there is. That pairing, fine relief bracketed by plain chip work, is the signature of provincial and folk carving rather than academic cabinet work, and it turns up in Northern European, Scandinavian and South and East Asian traditions alike. We do not attach it to one country on the strength of what the object itself shows, and we would rather say so than invent a birthplace for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn date, this much is solid. The carving came first and the paint came after, which the enamel sitting down inside the punched ground proves on its own. Bright saturated gloss enamel brushed on in a single heavy coat is a twentieth-century product, so the green is a refinish rather than original decoration, and the carving it covers is necessarily older than it is. Under the paint the work is chisel and punch throughout, with softened arrises and the accumulated knocks of long service before the repaint ever happened. On that reading the piece is offered as c. 1880 to 1925, repainted later in its life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe form is the oldest logic in candle holding. A long shaft carries the flame up where it does the most good, and the weight and the ornament go at the bottom, where they keep the thing standing and where the eye lands when it sits on a table.

The stem breaks out of the bobeche and flares downward in fluted strands that spread across a low domed base, and between them the casting carries the Art Nouveau motif proper. Large teardrop pods, each one held in a pair of sinuous stems that loop, cross and run back on themselves in the whiplash line the style is named for. The outline of the base follows the design rather than staying round, waving gently in and out where the pods meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gilding is warm and even across the whole piece, bright on the turned rim and softer in the cast recesses. The underside is covered edge to edge in felt, cut to follow the waving outline of the base, so it sits on furniture without marking it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Provenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is Art Nouveau in its proper vocabulary. The whiplash stem, the seed pod held in a curve rather than presented square, the base that refuses a circle and follows its own ornament, and the fluted foot that grows out of the stem like a root system are all the language the movement built between about 1895 and the First World War. Nothing about the drawing is generic, and whoever modelled this had looked at the real thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacture is a different question, and the honest reading is that it is later than the design. Three things point that way. The relief is soft edged and rounded rather than chased sharp after casting, with small pits in the surface of the foot, which is what a casting taken from another casting looks like. The bobeche is thin, stamped and cut rather than spun or cast. And the gilding is unbroken, sitting as brightly in the recesses as on the high points, with no wear through at the base rim or the cup lip where a century of handling would have taken it off first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn that evidence it is offered as c. 1950 to 1980, a revival piece rather than a period one, made when Art Nouveau came back into fashion and decorative brass was being cast in volume for the furnishing trade. It is the honest reading of what is visible and the listing does not claim more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour things would settle it and could move the date earlier. Whether a maker's mark, a foundry mark or a stamped country of origin survives under the felt. Whether the base is a solid casting or spun from sheet. Whether the gilding wears through to yellow brass or to a white metal, which would mean plated spelter rather than brass. And the weight in the hand, since period castings of this form are noticeably heavier than their reproductions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCandlestick, cast brass with a gilt finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCup\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeep tapered bowl with a repeating fanned palmette and leaf relief, turned plain inside, cylindrical candle socket set in the floor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBobeche\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeparate eight lobed disc with radiating ribbing, carried on the stem below the cup\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFoot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow spreading dome cast in relief with teardrop pods held in whiplash stems, fluted strands running down from the stem, waved outline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGilt, bright on the turned surfaces and softer in the cast recesses\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnderside\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFelted edge to edge, cut to follow the waved outline of the base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone visible.

At five inches this fits on a mantel, a bookshelf, a bathroom counter or a dining table without competing with anything, and the warm gilt does what brass is meant to do in a room, which is throw a bit of light back at you in the corners where nothing else does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relief is what separates it from the field. Most small candlesticks are turned and plain because turning is cheap, and a cast piece with a modelled foot and a modelled cup reads as an object rather than a fitting. Photographed on a stack of books or beside a clock it holds its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also takes a real candle rather than a tealight, which is worth saying. The socket is a proper one and the wide cup underneath means the wax goes where it should instead of down the stem and onto the furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viridian Eclection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50412888719465,"sku":"VE-1694","price":306.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/0093\/9369\/files\/ve-1694-01.jpg?v=1790253888"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/0093\/9369\/collections\/83521763-6B13-475A-B0E8-E971E428EC5D_1_105_c.jpg?v=1789258416","url":"https:\/\/viridianeclection.com\/collections\/candlesticks.oembed?page=2","provider":"Viridian Eclection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
