About the Item

A finely crafted pair of antique brass push-up candlesticks, dating to the 19th century, showcasing the elegant utility of pre-electric lighting design. Dimensions: Height: 18 cm, Diameter: 12 cm Each candlestick features a cylindrical holder with a vertical slot and thumb lever mechanism, allowing the candle to be raised or lowered with ease - a hallmark of Victorian ingenuity and domestic refinement. The bases are gently domed and circular, offering stability and a pleasing visual weight. Their warm patina and subtle wear speak to decades of use and care, making them ideal for decorators seeking authentic period accents or collectors drawn to mechanical curiosities in lighting history. Whether styled on a mantel, console, or dining table, these candlesticks lend a quiet sophistication and tactile charm to any interior. Their compact proportions make them versatile for both intimate vignettes and layered historical displays.
