A substantial pair of Victorian brass candlesticks, standing 25cm tall with octagonal stepped bases and bold baluster stems. These classic holders were designed with utilitarian function in mind, each originally fitted with an ejector mechanism to push the candle up as it burned.

The pair are solid and weighty with a warm polished finish, showing light signs of age and use. Each takes a 2cm taper candle, making them both practical and decorative for the dining table, mantle or display.
