Expertly crafted from layered tole metal fronds, this free-standing table centerpiece rises gracefully from a stable, sleek metal base.
This vintage piece has been beautifully reimagined using traditional Italian-style hand gilt techniques, resulting in a rich, multi-dimensional gold leaf finish with dark antiqued undertones peeking through for historic depth. This layered, distressed finish is entirely intentional, expertly crafted to give the piece an authentic, aged gold leaf patina. To add an enchanting, whimsical touch, three detailed, jeweled dragonfly brooches have been elegantly nestled into the golden foliage. Unlike a standard single candlestick, this three-light candelabra features slender candle cups specifically scaled for European-style thin tapers, delicate chime candles, or slim devotional tapers, making it a magnificent statement on a dining room table, fireplace mantel, or console entry.
This exceptional piece is styled after mid-century Italian toleware, neoclassical wheat sheaf candelabras, and the iconic gilded botanical designs popularized by Hans Kögl. Capturing the theatrical, more-is-more glamour of Tony Duquette and the bold, high-contrast luxury of Dorothy Draper, it perfectly delivers the high-end Chinoiserie Hollywood Regency look sought after by premier collectors.
