This pair of Anglo-Indian candlesticks dates from 1920 and follows an Anglo-Indian colonial style. The pieces are made from dark brown padauk hardwood and feature a polished finish. Each tall candlestick comprises a flared sconce, a turned circular base, and a tapered reeded stem with fine ribbed columns. The wood exhibits a rich dark brown grain with subtle tonal variations across the turned surfaces. Measuring 33 cm high, the pair is suited for display on a mantelpiece or a gentleman's library surface. Placement in a traditional interior creates a balanced decorative arrangement on a sideboard or desk. The turned profile works well within classic domestic settings, bringing warmth to a room through the dense timber. Maintenance requires only occasional dusting with a soft cloth to preserve the natural lustre of the padauk wood.

FAQs

Anglo-Indian candlesticks reflect a synthesis of nineteenth-century British colonial forms and traditional Indian wood-turning techniques. They frequently feature intricate reeded or ring-turned stems crafted from dark indigenous hardwoods.

Craftsmen predominantly utilised dense regional hardwoods such as rosewood, teak, padauk, and ebony, which allowed for precise lathe-turning and smooth friction polishing.

Authentic pieces exhibit slight hand-turned variations in the reeding, substantial timber weight, evidence of historical lathe tooling, and natural age-related shrinkage along the circular base.

Positioning a pair of turned wooden candlesticks on a dining table, mantelpiece, or sideboard introduces sculptural height, organic texture, and historical contrast to modern decorative schemes.

Dust regularly using a soft dry microfibre cloth and apply clear beeswax polish annually to protect the grain. Avoid contact with water or harsh chemical cleaners, and remove wax drippings using a soft wooden scraper.
