Description

15" Pair Refined Barley Twist Wood Candlesticks with Brass Thistle Tops

Elegant pair of vintage open barley twist candlesticks crafted in a classic English-style form, featuring richly finished wooden bases and engraved brass candle holders with a subtle foliate or thistle motif. The sculptural spiral shafts and substantial round bases create a refined, traditional presence, while the warm wood tones contrast beautifully with the aged brass tops. Though not antique, these reflect a timeless Colonial Revival aesthetic inspired by earlier craftsmanship.

Designed for standard 1" taper candles, they offer both decorative impact and everyday functionality—ideal for a dining table, mantel, or formal interior setting. Their height and graceful proportions make them especially eye-catching as a matched pair.

Condition:
In good condition overall, with wax residue from prior use. The wood shows light surface wear consistent with handling, and the brass holders display mild patina and minor marks. Felt bottoms are intact. No structural issues observed.

Dimensions:
Height: 15 inches
Base Diameter: 6 1/4 inches
Fits standard 1" taper candles
Note: Soup can shown for scale in photos
