A striking pair of early 20th-century English candlesticks, crafted in solid oak with elegant open barley twist stems and original floral brass sconces. The turned oak bases and shafts are exceptionally well-proportioned, with a deep, warm patina that brings out the natural figuring of the wood grain. Each top is fitted with a brass candle sconce, subtly scalloped and chased with petal-like detail. The brass has developed a rich patination over time, enhancing the warm tones of the oak beneath – circa 1920.
* Ideal for traditional or eclectic interiors, they offer both ambient charm and authentic historical presence.
