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

Mid-18th-century Georgian brass candlesticks typically feature turned baluster stems, urn-shaped nozzles, and shaped lobed or scalloped bases, reflecting the subtle influence of Rococo design.

Candlesticks from this period were generally cast in hollow vertical halves and brazed together or cast in sections using brass alloys with a high copper content, resulting in a distinct golden tone.

Authentic period examples often display vertical seam lines along the internal or external stem, hand-finished turning details, asymmetric base contours, and evidence of historical hand-casting techniques.

Displaying a pair on a dining table centre, a fireplace mantelpiece, or a sideboard top introduces warm metal tones and historical texture to contemporary or traditional interior settings.

Wax residue should be dissolved using warm water, followed by gentle polishing with a soft cloth and metal cleaner to preserve the metal without stripping oxidation from recessed details.
