Description from the seller
Pair of floor-standing wrought iron candelabra (ceremonial style), each with 16 candles.
This is a rare and impressive pair of forged black wrought iron stands, whose design and height make them ideal as floor candlesticks or ceremonial display stands with a striking presence.
The structure features a sturdy tripod base, a centrally twisted stem, and a triangular summit with points to support candles, suggesting its function as a holder for 16 candles.
The handcrafted work and curly motifs (scrolls) impart a distinct vintage style.
People from southern Italy were in an ancient farmhouse, probably to adorn and illuminate some large hall or the private chapel.
These objects immediately evoke the solemnity and sacred atmosphere of ancient churches or chapels, where every furnishing element was designed to last and honor the rite. Their robustness and the simple elegance of wrought iron symbolize devotion and artisanal tradition. They can be used as imposing chandeliers in a modern setting or as unique displays that carry the charm and history of sacred art.

Good vintage conditions. The iron is solid, stable, and the supporting structure is intact. The black finish shows a natural antique patina, consistent with ceremonial use.
A highly impactful lot with significant historical value, ideal for sacred art collectors or for furnishings with great personality.
