The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A torchere, historically designed to hold a candle or oil lamp, is a tall decorative stand or pedestal that originated in seventeenth-century France and evolved into a display piece for sculpture and flora.

Traditional torcheres were typically carved from hardwoods or softwoods such as beech and pine, coated with layers of gesso, and finished using water or oil gilding with genuine gold leaf.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved detailing, subtle craquelure or wear exposing the reddish bole underlayer beneath the gilding, and traditional joinery rather than modern fasteners.

A gilt torchere functions well as a focal accent in an entryway or empty alcove, used to elevate a classical bust, contemporary ceramic vessel, or trailing plant.

Giltwood surfaces should be dusted lightly using a soft dry brush or feather duster, avoiding moisture, liquid solvents, or polish which can degrade the fragile gesso and gold leaf.
