Iron Candlesticks Pair
A pair of cast iron candlesticks, likely early 20th century, each formed with a subtly tapering stem and squared base, their silhouette recalling ecclesiastical or mission-style restraint. The squared arms just beneath the candle cup suggest a functional gesture—steadying a hand, shielding a flame—while introducing a sculptural pause in their upright simplicity.Their weight and scale make them substantial on a mantle, console, or dining table, either holding beeswax tapers or standing alone as sculptural forms. Beautiful patina and minor surface irregularities speak to age and use.
