About the Item
Pair of Italian Giltwood Altar Candlesticks. Each features ornate sculptural forms with acanthus leaf and scroll motifs. The candlesticks stand of tripod bases with volute feet, supporting intricately turned and gessoed columns, finished in a soft gilded patina that has aged beautifully over time. These were originally used to hold tall wax candles on church altars or in chapels, and embody the grandeur of Baroque ecclesiastical art.
Today, these sculptural candlesticks bring architectural drama and historical texture to contemporary spaces. They can make a dramatic statement as a standing sentinel in an entryway, or be displayed on a console, mantle, or dining table either as candle holders or purely as decorative objects. The weathered gilt finishes pairs effortlessly with both modern minimalism and classis European interiors, adding a sense of patina, warmth, and timeless artistry.
