Description
Design & Inspiration
The grandeur of late 18th-century European courts lives on in this magnificent 5-arm candelabra, faithfully inspired by the Neoclassical and early Empire tradition. Where candlelight once illuminated the gilded salons of Versailles and the drawing rooms of the French aristocracy, this handcrafted piece now brings that very atmosphere into the contemporary luxury interior. The commanding vertical silhouette — anchored by a voluptuous rouge marble column and crowned by five scrolling brass arms — radiates the controlled opulence that defined the Louis XVI to Empire transition.
Materials & Craftsmanship
At the heart of this candelabra stands a turned column of warm rouge marble, its natural veining catching the light with quiet drama. The marble is embraced above and below by richly cast ormolu-finish brass mounts: a garland-draped collar encircles the column's waist, while the base presents a boldly sculptural platform supported by four lion's-paw feet and flanked by bas-relief foliate masks — classic Empire-period motifs executed with exceptional precision. The five candle arms radiate outward in graceful scrolls, each terminating in a classical bobeche candle cup, with a central flame-finial rising above. Every brass element is hand-finished to achieve the warm, satiny lustre characteristic of authentic period ormolu.
Dimensions & Details
Weighing 4 kg, this candelabra presents with the substantial visual weight befitting a formal centerpiece. Its five arms accommodate standard taper candles, making it both functional and deeply decorative. The layered construction — marble shaft, cast brass mounts, and scrolled armature — rewards close inspection, revealing the depth of ornamental detail that distinguishes a truly handcrafted piece from mass production.
Handcrafted in Egypt
Produced in Egypt by the artisans of Brass & Wood, this candelabra is a testament to the living tradition of classical decorative arts. Each piece is individually cast, assembled, and finished by hand, ensuring that no two are precisely identical — an inherent quality of genuine craftsmanship. Available in multiple brass finish variants to suit your interior palette, and customization of finish or marble selection is available upon request. Brass & Wood ships worldwide, delivering European heritage to homes across the globe.
