​This pair of Victorian brass candlesticks is designed in the Neoclassical style, which was highly popular during the 19th century for its elegant, architectural symmetry. They feature a clean, tapered column and a sturdy square pedestal base finished with a classic beaded rim—a hallmark of Neoclassical influence.
​A notable feature of this pair is the internal cork-ejector mechanism housed within the stem. While these are now seized (as is typical for their age), they are a fascinating piece of Victorian design history, originally intended to help push the candle stub out of the holder with ease. The brass has a deep, aged tone with natural verdigris on the bases, adding to their authentic antique appeal.
​These candlesticks are in very good antique condition, with a characterful patina that suits their 19th-century origin.
