"2nd Half 15th Century, Rare And Large Gothic Bronze Candlestick"

Haute Epoque

Rare, precious and large (29cm height) candlestick or torch, in bronze / brass, from Gothic period (2nd half of 15th century)

The bell-shaped base supports a stretched shaft with 4 rings.
The double light binet - on both sides, is characteristic from this Gothic period, each time with a double rectangular opening in height surmounted by a round, allowing the extraction of excess melted wax, and remaining architectural windows of Gothic churches .

This typology of candelsticks can generally be dated between 1450 and 1500. (Please check on last photo a documentation collected several similar candles)

Perfect condition: this candlestick has a nice and original patina: neither too cleaned nor polished.
Attachment of the barrel to the base is also original, without subsequent repair or reinforcement.

Dimensions 29cm height and 14cm diameter at the base

Rare in its typology and especially in its size and impeccable condition, this candlestick will fit easily and naturally into any Haute Epoque collection !
