Rococo Brass 3-Piece Candelabra & Centerpiece Bowl Set - Acanthus Scroll Foliage

Design & Inspiration

When the great silversmiths of Versailles conceived their table garnitures for the Sun King's banquets, they pursued a singular ambition: to transform the dining table into a theatre of light and luxury. This handcrafted Rococo brass 3-piece candelabra and centerpiece set draws directly on that tradition, evoking the lavish surtout de table ensembles that graced the grand tables of eighteenth-century France. A matching pair of four-arm candelabras flanks an organic centerpiece bowl, creating a unified composition that commands attention and fills any room with the warm luminosity of polished brass.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Each piece in this set is cast in solid brass using traditional lost-wax and sand-casting methods, then finished entirely by hand. The candelabras rise on three-legged bases densely populated with pierced acanthus scrolls, cartouche shields, and rocaille foliage — a vocabulary drawn directly from the Louis XV period's love of asymmetric, nature-inspired ornament. The central stem swells into a chased acanthus knop before branching into four sinuous arms, each terminating in a bobeche drip cup encircled by leaf sprays. The companion centerpiece bowl echoes every motif: its oval basin curves gently upward at the handles — themselves formed as leafy volutes — while the pierced four-legged base mirrors the candelabras' scrollwork exactly, creating an ensemble that reads as a single, coherent design statement. The brass receives a multi-stage hand-polished finish that catches light from every angle.

Dimensions & Details

The candelabras measure 59 cm in height and 30 cm in width, providing an impressive table presence while remaining proportionate for dining tables and sideboards. The centerpiece bowl spans 42 cm in width and stands 28 cm tall, offering generous display depth for fruit, florals, or sculptural arrangements. The complete set weighs approximately 4 kg, reflecting the density and quality of solid brass construction. Each candelabra accommodates four standard-diameter taper candles.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Brass & Wood's Egyptian artisans have spent generations mastering the European classical metalworking tradition, and this set represents the highest expression of that mastery. Every scroll is hand-chased after casting, every surface hand-polished to a consistent sheen, and every candle socket hand-fitted for a secure candle hold. The result is a luxury decorative set that faithfully reproduces the grandeur of Rococo table art — made in Egypt, delivered to the world. Available in Gold, Silver, and Antique Gold finishes, and fully customizable to order.
