$775

About

This elegant pair of antique candlesticks was crafted in England circa 1920. Each candle holder stands on a substantial round plinth base and features a beautifully turned barley twist stem with open, pierced carving that gives the silhouette depth and movement. The spiral shaft rises from a baluster-form knop and is topped with a brass candle cup, adding a subtle contrast of warm metal against the rich wood tone. The oak displays a deep, dark walnut patina with attractive grain variation throughout, enhancing the sculptural quality of the twist design. The underside retains protective felt pads, and the brass liners show gentle oxidation consistent with age. These antique candlesticks are in excellent condition commensurate with age and use. Perfect for a dining table, mantel, or console, they bring classic English character and timeless warmth to both traditional and transitional interiors. Dimensions: 5.5″W x 5.5″D x 12.5″H
