A miniature onyx amphora-shaped candlestick – one of those rare finds that strike the perfect balance between grandeur and delicacy.
The spherical body made of genuine onyx marble displays the stone's characteristic play of colors: warm ochre, deep wine red, creamy white, and interwoven brown – each piece uniquely patterned, no two are alike. The curved brass handles in a baroque swing style and the dotted wax plate lend it a festive elegance.
Origin: Vitis Flea Market, Waldviertel, Lower Austria
Note on the candle: There is still a small candle remnant in the holder – we deliberately left it as we bought the piece: in its original condition. This way, you can see at first glance what this holder is intended for. The candle can be easily removed: simply place the piece in the freezer for 1–2 hours. The wax contracts in the cold and can then be removed easily and without residue – without any risk to the stone.
Shipping: Shipped from Austria, carefully packaged via Austrian Post.
Vitis. A small village in the Waldviertel, where silence is palpable.
This candlestick started its journey elsewhere – perhaps in the warm south, in a shop full of tourist souvenirs that became more than expected. The bands of the onyx tell of millions of years. The brass handle tells that someone found this small object important enough to keep.
