Large Neo-Renaissance chased brass altar candle holder from the 19th century
Candelabra 59cm - Candle holder
19th century - Chased brass
A true centrepiece due to its size, this monumental 59 cm torch is a remarkable example of the French Neo-Renaissance style of the second half of the 19th century.
Combining the liturgical solemnity of the base with exceptionally fine chiselling, it features a slender, richly decorated shaft resting on a tripod base.
The three-sided base features three finely crafted religious medallion busts representing the pillars of the Christian faith:
• Christ with long hair and a neat beard.
• The veiled Virgin Mary in a contemplative pose.
• Saint Peter (identifiable by his short beard and bare forehead), founder of the Church.
The central knot is decorated with three winged cherub heads, adding a heavenly dimension to the whole.
- Material: 19th-century chiselled brass.
- Dimensions: Height 59 cm, stable weight 2.4 kg.
- Assembly: Antique structure with original iron threaded rod and nut under the base. The tip of the original candle holder has disappeared, but the screw at the bottom of the bobèche remains.
A candle can therefore be placed on it as shown in the photo, but not a ball due to the screw.
