Found in a very old antique store
In good antique condition, with some wear from age and use (has that realy great aged patina antique look)
Hand mage
Probably pretty expensive when it was originally made
Labeled on bottom and a metal ring around top part say "Made in Italy"
Note: Looks like it was once electrified and had bulbs in the leaves at one time, it's since been used as
a candelabra for candles as pictured.
The wiring for the bulbs appears to still be there. Nice project If your handy and wanted to make a project or rewiring it.
But, no need to do any rewiring as it's a beautiful and totally useful work of art as a candle candelabra
Made early 1900s
Material used:
Has a carved wooden base
Ceramic, carved wood or plaster mid section (not sure which)
Brass or bronze leaves with tubing for the top parts
The whole piece has been antique gold leafed
Looks like it was hand made
Dimensions:
22" tall (from very bottom to very top with out the candles)
10" wide (widest parts)
9" cherub figurine
Weight is 4 lbs
It's an exceptional candelabra, probably a one of a kind piece.
Use as a center piece on a dining table, entry way table, special display sculptural piece on a pedistal or side table or to create a very notable environment.
Would be great to enliven your home or for a restaurant, hotel, B&B, architect or designer (to enhance their theme)
Buy with confidence, you won't be disappointed it's a pretty special antique candelabra.
Will pack carefully so as to arrive safely
