Description

This very rare tall brass altar candlestick dates from around 1910.  Originally sourced from a church, this impressive piece features a heavy, stable base supported by four solid brass ball feet to ensure it stays securely upright. Rather than a standard modern cup, it features a traditional authentic spike (pricket) and a wide integrated drip tray to accommodate large church candles.
Its design is elegantly understated and mostly plain, highlighted by a classic central ball decoration on the stem which functions as both an aesthetic feature and a practical grip for carrying.
This is a commanding, statement piece perfect for a grand dining setting, fireplace hearth, altar display, or atmospheric gothic interior.

Dimensions:

  • Weight: 4kg
  •  Height: 85 cm
  •  Drip Tray Width: 21 cm

This piece is in beautiful antique condition with a natural, aged patina. It shows minor surface wear, marks from polishing over the years, and small signs of verdigris, all entirely consistent with its age and authentic church use. Please note: This item is sold exactly as found and has not been touched, polished, or cleaned for resale, preserving its wonderful historic character for the buyer. There is some historic silver solder/welding visible on the candle tray where the spike or tray was attached. This is a common historical repair or reinforcement and does not detract from the elegance of the piece, as it is completely hidden from view once a candle is placed on the spike. Please review all photos carefully to assess the condition.

Thanks for looking.
