About the Item

Made from hand wrought iron and repurposed antique elements, this pair of French candelabra lamps has a total of six sockets and a total height of 38 inches. The light of the central column rises above the surrounding lights atop the five curled arms. All sockets sit in scalloped bobeches. The wrought iron ornamentation rises from within the hand-carved wooden bases. These bases are antique elements known as “pots a feu”, or “fire pots”, which are finials in the shape of flames. This design motif was originally seen as carved stone elements placed on roofs of buildings in 17th century France. Later centuries would see the flaming finial used as decorative items in everything from art to furniture to garden items. Our pots feu have been whitewashed (traces of the original finish can still be seen) and mounted on contemporary square iron plinths that have been painted black. All of the ironwork surrounding the central column has been hand wrought, hammered, and patinated in black with traces of a dark brass coloration. This stunning pair of French candelabra lamps have been wired for use in North American homes. They would make great table lamps in a variety of home styles.

Pair of Hand Forged 18th Century Spanish Iron Torchere Candle Holders

Located in Dallas, TX

Full of charm and character, this pair of iron torchere candle holders were hand-forged in Spain during the 1700s. The visible strike marks made by the blacksmith, along with the flattened pin that affixes the highly scrolled arms add subtle nuances to the 21-inch tall candlesticks. At the end of each arm is a torch-like light sconce with a banded noix at the bottom, topped by a flat bobeche with a thin rim and a folded cylindrical capital. Rising a few inches above is a third light source with an identical bobeche and capital that extends from the central column. The three-light spread is supported by tripod bases featuring sinuous legs that have been embellished by roundels set within thin fluting. Our pair of Spanish torchere...
