Antique Georgian Brass Candlesticks - Pair of 18th Century Neo-Classical Taper Holders

Bring the timeless elegance of the late Georgian era into your home with this exceptional, heavy-weight pair of solid cast brass candlesticks. Dating back to the circa 1760–1800 period, this 18th century antique set perfectly embodies the balanced, Neoclassical design principles popular in late Georgian England and Scotland.

Design Details: Stately
Architecture: Features elegantly tapered, column-style stems rising into integrated square drip pans.
Stepped Square Bases: Substantial, multi-stepped square bases give them a solid, stable stance and a handsome silhouette.
Hand-Crafted Features: Typical of authentic 18th-century production, these were made using historical sand-casting techniques, resulting in crisp architectural lines and a rewarding, heavy weight in the hand.

Whether flanking a fireplace mantel, elevating a formal dining table, or adding historic character to a library desk, these authentic Georgian pieces offer a warm, golden ambiance that reproduction brass simply cannot replicate.

Condition & Patina: Beautifully preserved antique condition with a soft, rich patina acquired over centuries of hand polishing. Minor surface marks, faint tarnish lines, and small spots consistent with genuine age and historical use.

Dimension: Height - 24cm. Square base - 8cm x 8cm. Top - 4.5cm x 4.5cm.

Add a touch of English olde worlde charm in any home.

Care, Packaging & Shipping Instructions

Care & Maintenance
Gentle Cleaning: Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to prevent buildup.
Tarnish Removal: Use a specialized brass cleaner like Wright's Brass Polish or Cape Cod Polishing Cloths if you prefer a bright finish.
Preserving Patina: To keep the historic 18th-century dark patina, avoid chemical cleaners. Use a dab of natural beeswax paste instead.
Wax Removal: Never scrape solid brass with knives or sharp metal tools. Run hot tap water over the brass to soften spilled candle wax, then wipe it away with a soft cloth.

Professional Packaging:
Individual Wrapping: We wrap each candlestick independently in tissue paper to protect the surface finish from scratches.
Shock Absorption: Each piece is securely wrap in at least two dense layers of small-bubble wrap. Secure the wrap with tape.
Separation Layer: We place a thick cardboard or foam divider between the two candlesticks inside the box to prevent them from colliding or rubbing together during transit.
