Wrought Iron Candle Holder

France, 19th Century

$195

Antique

Sylvie Favorite

Rare

Some evenings call for candlelight rather than overhead lighting. This wrought iron candelabra, found in the Beziers, is shaped with four gently curving arms rising from a central stem, each cup set on a crimped bobeche that catches wax as it falls, all anchored by a scrolling tripod base that keeps it steady. Pieces like this were common in provincial homes before widespread electricity, forged by local blacksmiths who balanced function with just enough flourish to elevate the everyday. Sylvie sets it at the center of a dining table lighting all four at once so the iron softens in the glow and the whole room shifts with it.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.
