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

Originating in France during the seventeenth century, a torchere was created as a tall, freestanding stand designed to elevate candelabras, oil lamps, or wax candles, improving light distribution across a room.

Victorian torcheres were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as solid mahogany, walnut, or oak, often featuring hand-carved tripod bases, turned turnings, and fluted central columns.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples feature hand-turned columns, pegged or dovetail jointing at the tripod base, natural wood grain variations, and subtle signs of wear on the upper surface where lamps or vases rested.

Place a torchere in an empty corner, window bay, or beside a sideboard to introduce vertical height. Use it to display a ceramic planter, a bronze sculpture, or a modern table lamp.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the direction of the grain. Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent cracking.
