Measuring 16.25 inches high by 8.5 inches in diameter without the candle, it features a deep, scalloped bowl adorned with a finely chased rococo-style foliate rim, perfect for housing a large pillar candle or floral centerpiece.
The gracefully tapered stem rises from a ribbed and fluted base, ringed with an egg-and-dart inspired border that lends texture and visual weight. The silvered surface has acquired a soft luster and subtle aging, enhancing the classical contours and craftsmanship.
A striking decorative accent for a console, mantel, or dining table, this substantial mid-century piece bridges traditional French elegance with vintage charm. Excellent vintage condition with age-appropriate wear to the silver finish. See less
