Egyptian Palm Tree Brass Candelabra - 3-Arm Ornate Candleholder
Categories:
Design & Inspiration
Rising from a molded circular base like a monument born of the Nile, this handcrafted brass candelabra draws its soul from ancient Egyptian symbolism. The palm tree — an enduring emblem of life, fertility, and solar radiance in pharaonic art — is here reimagined as a three-arm candelabra of commanding presence. Its silhouette echoes the grandeur of the Egyptian Revival aesthetic that captivated European decorative arts from the Napoleonic era onward, where the motifs of the Nile Valley were elevated into the language of luxury interiors.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Cast entirely from solid brass, this candelabra is a testament to the skill of Egyptian artisans who have refined their metalworking craft across generations. The textured trunk of the palm is rendered with fine engraved detailing that catches and scatters candlelight across the room. Three graceful arms extend outward — two sweeping laterally at equal heights and one rising regally to the crown — each terminating in a richly layered floral bobeche that cradles the candle with sculptural elegance. The raised circular base is finished with radiating reeded lines, grounding the piece with architectural weight.
Dimensions & Details
Weighing 4 kg, this candelabra has the heft and gravitas one expects of a luxury brass accent piece. The solid-cast brass construction ensures durability while the polished finish — available in Gold, Antique Gold, and Silver — allows it to complement a range of interior palettes from warm classical schemes to cooler contemporary settings. Each bobeche accommodates a standard taper candle, making the piece as functional as it is ornamental.
Handcrafted in Egypt
Every piece bearing the Brass & Wood name is made in Egypt by master craftsmen who honor centuries of metalworking heritage. This candelabra is individually cast, finished by hand, and inspected before dispatch. No two pieces are absolutely identical — minor variations in texture and patina are the hallmark of genuine handcraft, not imperfection. At Brass & Wood, we believe that a home furnished with intention deserves objects made with intention.
