Rococo Brass Three-Arm Candelabra with Floral Scroll Base
Categories:
Design & Inspiration
Few decorative objects command a room quite like a well-proportioned candelabra, and this three-arm brass candelabra — faithfully inspired by the exuberant vocabulary of 18th-century Rococo — does precisely that. The undulating arms rise and curve with organic confidence, evoking the asymmetrical naturalism that defined the court workshops of Louis XV's Versailles. Each arm terminates in a deeply cast tulip-shaped candle cup fringed with acanthus leaves, while the central column rises from a baluster stem into a spray of cast foliage that anchors all three branches. The lobed, four-footed base is embossed with rocaille scrollwork and floral reliefs — a visual echo of the period's obsession with the natural world rendered in precious metal.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Cast entirely in solid brass using traditional sand-casting and lost-wax techniques, this candelabra achieves a depth of relief that machine-pressed metalwork simply cannot replicate. Each piece is hand-finished by Brass & Wood's skilled artisans in Egypt, with careful chasing applied to sharpen every acanthus scroll, leaf vein, and shell motif. The result is a surface alive with texture — the warm glow of polished brass capturing and diffusing light in a way that transforms any ambient flame into something theatrical. Available in multiple brass finishes, the candelabra adapts seamlessly from a gilded drawing room to a warm, antique-toned dining table centrepiece.
Dimensions & Details
Weighing 4 kg, this candelabra has the satisfying heft of genuine cast metalwork — it sits with authority and will not tip. The three candle cups are sized to accommodate standard taper candles. The four pad feet on the sculpted base protect table surfaces while adding to the period-correct silhouette. Whether displayed with candles lit or unlit, the piece functions as a standalone sculptural object of considerable decorative power.
Handcrafted in Egypt
Every candelabra produced by Brass & Wood is handcrafted in Egypt by artisans who carry forward generations of metalworking expertise. From the initial pattern-making and casting to the final hand-polishing and finishing, no two pieces are exactly identical — each carries the subtle individuality of the maker's hand. This commitment to craft is what distinguishes a Brass & Wood piece from mass-produced alternatives, and it is the reason our candelabras are found in distinguished private residences, luxury hotels, and heritage interiors across the region and beyond.
