About the Item

Large floor-standing candle holder handcrafted in brass, dating from the 1950s. The surface is decorated with a stamped circular pattern, lending the piece a subtle sculptural texture. Designed to accommodate a pillar candle, its tall and imposing form suggests possible use as an altar candlestick, likely intended for a church or ecclesiastical setting and is perfect for the festive season. The candlestick stands as a strong example of mid-century handcrafted brass work, combining functional purpose with restrained modernist design. Dimensions are measured without the candle. One pillar candle is included.
