A striking pair of heavy, solid brass candlesticks featuring a sophisticated faceted stem and a stable hexagonal base.

Dimensions:
Height: 9.25"
Base: 4" (Hexagonal)
Condition:
Good Vintage Condition: The set possesses a beautiful, unpolished "estate patina" that many collectors prefer for its authentic, storied look.
Surface: Shows scattered "flea bites" (tiny dark oxidation spots) and a mottled texture on the rims consistent with age.
Interior: Significant green verdigris and oxidation are present inside the cups and on the undersides from decades of historical use.
Structural: Solid and stable with no visible dents or bends. They can be left with their current antique character or polished to a high golden luster with standard brass cleaner.
These candlesticks are the perfect "anchor" piece for a curated home. Their substantial weight and elegant geometric design make them a standout set for anyone looking to add a touch of mid-century sophistication to their space.
