This antique three-arm candelabra was presumably made around 1900 and consists of a heavy pewter or white metal alloy, as was commonly used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Such candleholders were a more affordable alternative to solid silver, yet appeared equally elegant and representative.
The curved arms, stable base, and classic design are in line with the Historicism style, which drew inspiration from Baroque and classical models. Three-arm candelabras were often used for festive tables, salons, or religious spaces.
On the underside, there is a later-applied velvet pad to protect furniture surfaces. This can be removed if necessary.
The condition is very good, with slight age-related signs of use that emphasize its authentic character.
