Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE VICTORIAN ERA:
Pierced trefoil gallery: Gothic Revival taste popular in church and domestic metalwork.
Concentric lathe lines beneath the base: turned brass assembly of the period.

These Victorian Gothic Revival brass candlesticks bring period character to any mantelpiece. Each example features a warm brass finish with visible signs of age and tarnishing across the metal surface, a turned column shaft with a central knop, a stepped circular base, and a castellated pierced coronet drip pan at the top. The candlesticks stand 25 cm high, with a width and depth of 13 cm. Display the pair together on a mantelpiece or sideboard to anchor a traditional room scheme or to add metallic contrast to a contemporary living space. The heavy turned brass construction and architectural Gothic detailing make them suitable for everyday use as functional candle holders or as decorative items in a study, dining room, or hallway.

Gothic Revival candlesticks from the Victorian era reflect a mid-to-late nineteenth-century fascination with medieval architectural elements. Features typically include pointed arches, trefoils, crenellated or pierced galleries, and solid turned column bases.

These pieces were primarily produced from heavy cast brass, bronze, or latten metal, often featuring turned sections and hand-finished or stamped pierced details.

Authentic nineteenth-century brass candlesticks exhibit significant physical weight, subtle surface irregularities from hand-finishing, and threaded or pinned component assembly rather than modern machine welding.

Positioning a symmetrical pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or dining table creates visual balance and introduces warm metallic texture into modern room schemes.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners that strip natural patination. Microcrystalline wax can be applied periodically to preserve the metal surface and protect against rapid oxidisation.
