Very beautiful and large ceramic candle holder of different colors (blue, green, pink, white... On a taupe and brown background on the top of the barrel) which form on the barrel marbling or dripping of the most beautiful effect! Really very original! Originality that also comes from the shape of its handle, like a lace delicately placed between the cup and the barrel. In addition, it is very practical with its cup and handle because it allows you to move with the candle holder safely, which is why these candlesticks are called "cellar rat". It has what seems to me to be a signature, "eli" or "eh", I have not managed to discover the identity of the ceramist, but what is certain is that he is very talented, it is a very beautiful craftsmanship. I found a ceramic dish with the same colors and marbling that would come from a spanish pottery named aparicio, maybe a track to dig... And another ceramic of very similar appearance that would be dated from the 40s. For my part, I will not advance, I am really not able to date this beautiful object. It is in very good condition, just a few cracks on the enamelling and the only small "defects" I see are original defects that testify to an artisanal manufacture: a small lack on the enamelling and cracks on the base of the handle (which are cooking cracks and do not question the solidity of the whole). It measures 19.5 cm in height, 15.5 cm in diameter at the cup, the inner diameter of the end of the barrel is about 3.5 cm. It weighs about 700g.
