This is a 3-light candelabra or candlestick. Given its weight and structure, it was designed to be placed on a piece of furniture and not carried around, as there is nothing to make it easy to transport by hand.
Candlesticks are used to provide light when moving around, unlike chandeliers and other candle-lit lighting fixtures that remain on a piece of furniture, as is the case here.
Elegant three-branched candelabra from the Belle Epoque - Art Nouveau period (circa 1900), featuring a highly refined naturalistic decoration. Three lights with corolla bobeches.
This piece is distinguished by its organic lines imitating plant stems blossoming into stylised leaves and flowers.
Eight small flowers enhanced with turquoise blue paint create a delicate contrast with the golden patina of the brass.
Height 25cm - Tripod base: approximately 11cm Weight: 260g
The candlestick is made of chiselled brass.

It comes from the former cellar-laboratory of a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles had not been moved from the shelves since the late 1950s. The cellar had served as a medical analysis laboratory and a laboratory for the pharmacy’s compounded preparations from 1900 until around 1950.
