This large pair of Victorian brass candlesticks dates to 1890 and exhibits a Gothic-influenced aesthetic. Rendered in a warm brass colour with a polished metallic finish, the set displays visible surface wear including minor scuffs and marks indicative of age, alongside a stamped inscription on the base. Each candlestick comprises a vertically turned column accented by a prominent faceted diamond knop and stepped mouldings, supported upon an octagonal stepped base. Standing 32 cm high with a width and depth of 11 cm, these items provide a substantial decorative presence. In a modern home, this pair suits placement upon a mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table to add period character to a traditional interior scheme.

FAQs

Victorian brass candlesticks typically feature cast brass construction, turned central columns with ornamental knops, and solid octagonal or circular bases produced during the 19th century.

Antique brass candlesticks were usually cast in two hollow halves using sand moulds, then brazed together and finished on a lathe to create detailed knops and polished surfaces.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit seam lines along the column from the casting process, hand-turned base threading, push-up ejector mechanisms, and natural wear or oxidisation on the underside.

A pair of brass candlesticks can be arranged symmetrically on a dining table, mantelpiece, or sideboard to add warm metallic tones and classical height to a room display.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and remove accumulated wax using warm water; avoid abrasive chemical cleaners that could strip historic patination or protective finishes.
