About the Item

Stunning antique French church candlestick, beautifully decorated with charming lilies, grapes and ears of corn. It can hold 5 candles. Circa 1900 These beautiful candelabra are also called thanksgiving candles, as they were donated to the church, often as gifts from the church’s parishioners and wealthy families, as thanks for a healing or a good harvest. They still stand in Catholic churches, often at the altar or in small niches around the church. The candlestick is made of patinated bronze and brass, with a beautifully ornamented base. The branch is elegantly structured, like a lush flower bouquet with branched opaline flowers, vine leaves, grapes and lily flowers and is equipped with 5 candle holders for traditional candles. Perfect for the mantelpiece or on the windowsill. Since the candlestick is an altar candlestick, it appears most beautiful in the front and is flat at the back.
