Description from the seller

This authentic wrought iron church candelabrum dates from the early 19th century and is a characterful object with a strong historical and artisanal appearance. The piece is entirely hand-forged and reflects the craftsmanship and sober elegance typical of ecclesiastical wrought iron work from this period.

The candle holder rests on three gracefully curved legs with rolled ends, providing a stable and harmonious shape. At the top, there is a flower-shaped fat catcher with a central candle thorn, designed to catch melted wax during prolonged use in a church or chapel.

The natural patina, with clear signs of age and use, contributes to the authenticity and charm of the object. The visible hammer marks and light irregularities emphasize the handcrafted nature and make each detail unique.

With a height of approximately 20 cm and a width of approximately 19 × 19 cm, this candlestick is a particularly decorative piece for a classic, country, or historic interior, and at the same time an interesting collector's item for enthusiasts of church antiques and wrought iron art.
