The warm brass base is balanced by three candle-forms, delicate swagged chains, and an adjustable shade that can be raised or lowered to control the pool of light.

At 28.5 inches high, this example has enough scale to anchor a library console, writing desk, bedside chest, or side table beside a favorite chair. The contrast of aged brass and black tole gives it a particularly good presence in English country, French Provincial, Regency, and collected traditional interiors.
