Pair of Victorian Gothic Brass Candlesticks, Circa 1870

19th century
Description

Presenting a pair of Victorian Gothic brass candlesticks, dating back to the year 1870. These candlesticks are a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of the Victorian era.

The pair is well-proportioned, boasting a harmonious balance between their height and width. The candlesticks are crafted from high-quality brass, known for its durability and timeless appeal.

The rims of the candlesticks are adorned with intricately pierced fleur-de-lys patterns, a classic symbol of the Gothic style. This detail not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also allows for a captivating play of light when the candles are lit.

The stems of the candlesticks are elegantly turned, a design choice that adds a touch of sophistication and provides a comfortable grip when moving the candlesticks.

Adding to the uniqueness of these candlesticks are the lion paw feet. These raised feet, meticulously shaped to resemble the powerful paws of a lion, provide stability to the candlesticks and prevent them from tipping over.

In conclusion, this pair of Victorian Gothic brass candlesticks, with their intricate details and superior craftsmanship, are more than just functional objects. They are a piece of history, a reflection of the artistic sensibilities of the Victorian era, and a beautiful addition to any home decor.

FAQs

Victorian Gothic Revival metalwork draws inspiration from medieval ecclesiastical designs, prominent between the 1840s and 1880s. Key features include architectural forms such as crenellated drip pans, knopped stems, pointed arches, and claw feet cast in heavy brass or bronze.

Victorian candlesticks were predominantly cast from solid brass, bronze, silver plate, or cast iron. Brass pieces were frequently hand-finished or turned on a lathe, featuring weighted bases to ensure stability.

Authentic nineteenth-century brass candlesticks typically exhibit threaded cast sections, heavy bases, and subtle surface variations from hand-finishing. Natural patination, wear in high-touch areas, and seam lines consistent with period casting techniques further indicate age.

Place a pair of Gothic Revival candlesticks on a dining table, mantelpiece, or sideboard to create architectural interest and height. Combining metallic brass with dark surfaces or modern minimalist furniture provides a sophisticated stylistic contrast.

To preserve the original patina, dust the surface regularly with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners; if necessary, warm soapy water can remove residual candle wax, followed by a light coat of microcrystalline wax to protect the metal.
