Neoclassical Style Candle Holders

This striking pair of vintage brass candle holders channels the opulence and symmetry of Baroque design, making them both functional and dramatically decorative. What sets them apart is the heavy, square base—richly cast with scrolling acanthus leaves, floral motifs, and high-relief embellishments that bring texture and movement to the solid brass surface. The patina adds depth, catching the light with warm golden tones and hints of aged verdigris.

Their compact, weighty design speaks to both durability and elegance. If you haven't seen them in person, picture finely sculpted architectural miniatures—like a piece of palace décor scaled down for the home. The top column is fluted and slightly tapered, giving the silhouette an elevated classical touch, while the ornate base feels rooted in European courtly traditions.

Likely dating from the early to mid-20th century, these pieces draw from Baroque Revival or Neoclassical styles, which saw a resurgence in decorative arts during the interwar years and again in the 1950s. They're not just candle holders—they're miniature sculptures, offering a sense of drama and history to any vignette.

Perfect on a mantel, flanking a mirror, or adding height and contrast to a dining table setting, these candle holders are as much about atmosphere as they are about illumination. Their craftsmanship and rich detail make them a worthy addition to any collector’s trove of vintage objects or anyone seeking a dose of old-world grandeur.
