A varied lot of three antique brass candlesticks dating from the 17th to 18th century (circa 1700 with later restorations), of French origin, in good condition with patina, each with its own form and style; up to 28 cm high and about 0.98 kg in total.
Description from the seller
This varied lot of three antique brass candlesticks dates from the 17th and 18th centuries, each with a unique shape and style typical of their respective period. The candlesticks have a beautiful natural patina and show signs of use, appropriate to their age.
Brass collar- or disc-candelabrum (circa 1700, the Netherlands)
Cast and turned in four parts: a round profiled base, a baluster-shaped stem, a grease catcher and a lightly conical candle holder with two round holes. Good condition, with a nice patina.
Dimensions: height 21 cm, diameter of collar and base 10 cm, 1.1 kg
Elegant brass candlestick (early 18th century)
Sleek, neoclassical design with an octagonal base. The unpolished underside and finish point to handcraft. Tells its history through subtle signs of use.
Dimensions: height 16 cm, diameter of base 10 cm, 0.65 kg
Brass prick candlestick (late 17th – early 18th century)
Stately Baroque style with a baluster-shaped stem and a wide base. The spike firmly holds candles, often used in church or processions. Repairs to the grease catcher and stem, but this does not detract from the charm.
Dimensions: height 28 cm, diameter of base 12 cm, about 1 kg
