Splendid gilded bronze candle holder, of excellent craftsmanship and likely dating to the late 19th century, created using the lost-wax casting technique.
The work features rich sculptural detailing, with ornamental heads and decorative motifs typical of late 19th-century art, suggesting a possible religious or liturgical purpose.

The original gilding, partially worn away by time, has developed a warm and captivating patina that enhances the depth of the reliefs and the nobility of the material.
Solid, heavy, and striking, the candle holder is a visually striking decorative object, perfect for enhancing classic or modern spaces, or for placing on consoles, period furniture, or next to a fireplace.
