A small witness to a bygone era, this silver-plated candlestick belongs to those modest yet elegant objects that naturally accompanied daily life. Its form is particularly pleasing, with a wide circular basin surrounded by a delicate fluted edge and a central candle holder highlighted by several moldings. A simple, almost classic architecture, designed both to hold the candle and to catch any wax drops that escaped 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 contemporary decor, either alone or combined with other antique candlesticks of varying heights. The silver-plated metal has retained a lovely luster, nuanced by the patina of time. Scratches, small marks, and old traces are present, particularly inside the candle holder, 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 holder opening approximately 4.5 cm. Circa .
