This pair of Edwardian candlesticks dates to c.1900 and is made from dark brown mahogany combined with gold-coloured brass. Each piece consists of a slender turned wooden stem with a bulbous lower section, rising from a circular stepped base and topped with a polished brass sconce featuring a thistle design. The polished timber displays smooth turned mouldings and visible grain patterns, presenting an elegant silhouette that contrasts warm wood tones against bright metallic hardware. Measuring 30.5 cm high, 12.1 cm wide and 12.1 cm deep, these compact accessories suit practical display on a mantelpiece within a gentleman's library or study today, providing functional lighting while adding traditional character to a room surface.

FAQs

Produced around the turn of the twentieth century, these candlesticks combine lathe-turned dark mahogany stems with fitted brass sconces, reflecting classical proportions and traditional woodworking craftsmanship.

The main column and weighted circular base were turned from solid timber on a lathe, while brass nozzle inserts were fitted at the top to catch dripping wax and hold the candle securely.

Authentic pieces often exhibit minor variations from hand-turning, original threaded central rods, natural surface patination, and minor wear to the base rim.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, a dining table centrepiece, or a hallway console table to introduce warm tones and vertical structure.

Dust the turned wood regularly using a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish sparingly, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners on the brass to preserve the natural aged finish.
