Pair of antique Victorian brass chamber candlesticks dating from around 1850–1900, with an adjustable candle-height mechanism.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A beautiful pair of antique French brass chamber candlesticks featuring an elegant design and an adjustable candle-height mechanism.
These charming candlesticks originate from France and are believed to date from the late 19th to early 20th century.
Each candlestick features a cylindrical stem with a vertical opening and a small sliding knob, allowing the candle to be raised as it burns down. This ingenious mechanism was designed to make full use of the candle while maintaining a comfortable flame height.
The wide, shallow drip trays are designed to catch melting wax, while the beautifully aged brass displays a warm golden patina that adds character and authenticity.
Their timeless French design makes them a wonderful addition to an antique collection, a traditional interior or a carefully curated vintage home.
