A visually striking pair of scarce serpant entwined candlesticks. circa 1890
Dating to the late 19th / early 20th century, possibly Anglo-Indian, featuring a bold and distinctive naturalistic sculptural form, with an organic rootwood trunk standard, wrapped with a writhing brass snake figure, with inset glass eyes, mouth open and teeth exposed, surmounted by a single candle holder.
Rare, unusual, and highly decorative, these fearsome whimsy candlesticks are sure to add a touch of whimsical elegance, rustic warmth, antique character and charm to any space!
Dimensions: (approx)
9" High, 3.5" Wide, 4.5" Deep (each)
