ENTRYWAY COLLECTION - French Estate Style
A striking pair of antique French Gothic Revival gilt brass ecclesiastical altar candlesticks, richly decorated with engraved shafts, pierced Gothic tracery, and architectural cross-form tripod bases that reflect the grandeur of late 19th-century cathedral design.
Standing an impressive 24 inches tall, these beautifully proportioned candlesticks embody the refined craftsmanship associated with French church furnishings produced during the Gothic Revival. Finely engraved columns rise from substantial pierced bases centered by Gothic crosses, while cast acanthus leaf bobeches and their original gilt finish complete the elegant vertical silhouette. The gilding extends to the undersides, a thoughtful detail seldom seen on decorative examples and one that speaks to their quality of manufacture. Their architectural presence makes them equally compelling displayed on an altar, flanking a mantel, or as dramatic statement pieces in a Gothic, European, or traditional interior.

Originally created for ecclesiastical use, the pair was later converted to electric lamps and has since been returned to its intended purpose as candlesticks, but can easily be converted to table lamps. Structurally sound and display exceptionally well. PLEASE NOTE: The styled interior image is a computer-generated rendering created for visual inspiration.
