Candleholder - Gilt brass - Pique Cierge - 56 cm

This large church or altar pricket candlestick is entirely crafted from molded and turned brass, reflecting the Neo-Gothic style from the Napoleon III period during the second half of the nineteenth century. The structure rises from a molded circular pedestal base ensuring perfect stability. The central cylindrical stem or baluster is punctuated by several protruding rings and layered knops, guiding the eye toward the upper liturgical element. The top section features a wide bobeche or wax catcher, crowned with an openwork brass gallery cut with repeating medieval-inspired quadrilobed and clover motifs. A long conically shaped central spike or pricket, displaying a natural verdigris patina, emerges from the bowl to hold the candle firmly in place. The dimensions of this liturgical piece indicate a total height of 56 cm from base to tip, with a foot base diameter of 18 cm. The individual weight of the brass structure reaches 1250 g. The overall condition is rated good, with the item maintaining its full structural integrity, without major deformation or cracks, showing only an authentic vintage patina with slight traces of natural oxidation and historic wax residues beneath the bowl.
