Baroque Brass 7-Arm Candelabra with Ornate Scrollwork Base

Design & Inspiration

Few decorative objects command a room the way a grand candelabra does. This seven-arm solid brass candelabra draws its visual language from the height of European Baroque and Rococo tradition — an era when candlelight was the sole illuminator of palatial dining halls and aristocratic salons. The piece rises with natural authority: scrolled arms branch outward from a richly ornamented spherical stem, each arm curling with fluid, naturalistic grace to cradle its candle cup at the perfect angle. Lit or unlit, it transforms any surface it graces into a focal point of distinguished character.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Cast entirely from solid brass, this candelabra is the product of skilled Egyptian metalwork artisans who combine centuries-old foundry techniques with meticulous hand-finishing. The spherical central knop is decorated with deeply incised geometric and foliate relief, echoing the intricacy of 17th-century European ormolu craftsmanship. The wide scalloped base is lavishly adorned with cast acanthus leaf motifs, shell cartouches, and scroll appliqués, all finished to a warm, lustrous tone. Each candle cup features a turned, ridged collar that recalls the refined aesthetic of period silversmithing. With a weight of 4 kg, the piece has the satisfying heft of genuine quality — it will not shift or tip.

Dimensions & Details

Standing 38 cm tall with a base width of 24 cm, this candelabra is ideally proportioned for a dining table centrepiece, console table display, or mantelpiece arrangement. It accommodates seven standard taper candles — one central arm rising above six symmetrically arranged lateral arms — creating a tiered crown of light. The piece is sold as a single unit (1 Piece) and requires only minimal assembly to attach the arms to the central stem.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Every candelabra bearing the Brass & Wood name is crafted in Egypt by artisans who have inherited and refined traditional metalworking skills across generations. Our workshop applies hand-casting, hand-chasing, and hand-polishing methods that cannot be replicated by industrial production, ensuring that no two pieces are entirely identical. This candelabra is available in multiple brass finishes — each variant reflecting a different mood, from the vivid brilliance of Bright Gold to the mellowed depth of Antique Gold. Customisation of finish and candle-cup size is available upon request, with a delivery timeframe of 15–30 days.
