Description:
Presenting a beautiful matching pair of vintage Chinese solid copper candlesticks. Crafted from heavy, solid copper, these candle holders feature a classic "bulbous" vase form with a slender neck and a flared top designed with a central pricket (pin) to securely hold taper candles.

The base of each candlestick is exquisitely cast with a band of raised lotus petal motifs (仰覆莲纹), adding a touch of traditional Buddhist or Imperial elegance. The surface displays a rich, deep reddish-brown patina that has developed beautifully over time, giving them a warm, antique appearance.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The copper body is solid and sturdy with a beautiful natural patina. The prickets (candle pins) and the carved lotus bases are intact and undamaged. Minor surface wear and slight oxidation are consistent with age and use. Please refer to all photos for exact condition.

This elegant pair makes a stunning addition to a dining table, mantlepiece, or as a decorative accent in any traditional or Asian-inspired interior. See less
