Additional Information
Additional Information
1. Design and Features
- These candlesticks feature a traditional multi-tiered baluster stem with a high-shine polished finish.
- Standing at 28.8 cm, they offer significant height for a dining table or mantelpiece without obstructing conversation.
- The square base provides a wide, stable footprint, while the stepped architectural details on the pedestal give the pair a classic, formal silhouette.
2. Craftsmanship
- Each piece is built around a solid central steel rod that secures the cast sections together.
- This internal reinforcement provides a heavy, substantial feel in hand and ensures the candlesticks remain perfectly upright.
- The exterior is finished in a bright, reflective brass plating that mimics the look of solid gold-tone metal while offering the durability of a reinforced core.
3. Uses and Versatility
The scale of these holders makes them a versatile choice for both modern and traditional interiors.
- Table Centerpiece: Their 28.8 cm height is ideal for layering with shorter floral arrangements or greenery.
- Console Decor: The square base fits securely on standard console tables, providing a symmetrical anchor for artwork or mirrors.
- Occasions: The polished finish works equally well for formal holiday settings or as a permanent fixture on a sideboard or console table.
4. Care Instructions
To maintain the high-shine reflective finish of these candlesticks, we recommend the following:
- Cleaning: Wipe with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust or fingerprints.
- Avoid Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemical polishes, as these can wear down the brass plating.
- Wax Removal: If candle wax drips onto the holders, allow it to harden completely. Gently pop the wax off with a plastic edge (like a credit card) rather than a metal knife to avoid scratching the surface.
- Moisture: Keep in a dry indoor environment to prevent any oxidation of the internal steel components.
