AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Set of two classic brass push-up candle holders, equipped with a traditional push-up mechanism that allows candle remnants to be easily pushed up and removed.
This type of candlestick was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and combines functionality with an elegant design.

The candelabras have an octagonal base, and on the inside is the original push-up mechanism: a metal rod with a pressure plate at the bottom and a round candle holder at the top.

Beautiful patina due to age; with oxidation marks typical of old brass.

Condition
Good to reasonably used condition.
The pressure mechanism works reasonably well.
One candlestick is missing a candle holder; see the last photo.
Normal wear and light oxidation
See photos for a realistic impression.

Dimensions per candlestick:
Height: 30 cm.
Width: 10 cm.
Depth: 10 cm.
Total weight for both: 1.1 kg.

The lot is carefully packaged and sent by registered mail, insured, with a track-and-trace number.
Collection after consultation is also possible.
