Pair of 19th Century Japanese Shokudai Bronze Candle Stands
 
This elegant pair of mid-19th century Japanese Shokudai bronze candle stands showcases the refined artistry of traditional Japanese metalwork. The candle stands feature tall rods stabilized by wide tray bases, designed to catch dripping wax. Each rod is anchored by a floral-patterned base, while a pricket emerges from a shallow dish at the top, typical of Shokudai design. The stands also include hanging snuffers for wick maintenance. The beautyful bronze patina enhances the historical charm and authenticity of these pieces. Fully detachable, each stand measures 70 cm in height with a 32 cm diameter, making them perfect for collectors of Japanese decorative arts or a contemporary interior.
