A small witness to a bygone era, this silver-plated candle holder belongs to those modest yet elegant objects that naturally accompanied daily life. Its shape is particularly pleasing, with a wide circular dish surrounded by a delicate fluted rim and a central candle socket highlighted by several moldings. A simple, almost classical design, conceived as much to hold the candle as to catch any drops of wax escaping the flame. One can easily imagine it placed on the edge of a writing desk, on a small table next to an armchair, or accompanying the last pages of a book before nightfall. Its size allows it to be easily integrated into a contemporary decor, alone or combined with other antique candle holders of varying heights. The silver-plated metal has retained a beautiful luster, nuanced by the patina of time. Scratches, minor marks, and signs of age are present, particularly inside the candle socket, without detracting from its charm. It is precisely these irregularities that today give this small piece its presence and character. Diameter approximately 9 cm. Height approximately 6.5 cm. Candle socket opening approximately 4.5 cm. Circa .
