A striking English copper and brass candlestick featuring a cast dragon-form handle with detailed scales and a fierce, expressive head. Crafted circa 1900, it captures the transition from the Aesthetic Movement into early Art Nouveau, where mythic form met refined craftsmanship.
The flared trumpet base and candle cup are spun copper; the sculpted dragon handle is solid brass with a rich bronze finish. A cast-iron weighted insert is concealed inside the base for stability, its underside neatly finished with the original green felt paper covering — a signature detail of quality English workshop production.
Warm copper and brass tones glow through a naturally aged patina, showing authentic character without loss of integrity.
Dimensions: 6 in H × 6.25 in Dia.
Condition: Very good antique condition with light surface wear, age patina, and expected felt wear underneath; no structural issues or repairs.
A distinctive and sculptural piece of turn-of-the-century English metalwork — ideal for collectors of Aesthetic Movement, Art Nouveau, or fantasy-inspired décor.
