Each candlestick stands on a tripod base with arched legs ending in flat, hammered feet, ensuring excellent stability. The shaft, of beautiful height, is adorned with two twisted sections framing a central ring forged from the mass, a detail that signifies the craftsmanship. The top blossoms into a wide cup equipped with a spike intended to hold a candle or a large candle. This artisanal work from the 1950s is part of the tradition of church and castle lighting, reinterpreted by post-war wrought ironwork, which transforms them into characterful domestic objects, balancing embraced rusticity and graphic rigor. Condition report: Generally good condition. Wrought iron with a homogeneous black patina, slight surface oxidation inherent to the material. A pair of stylish floor torchères, placed on either side of a fireplace, a door, or a farmhouse sideboard.
