Antique Painted Wood & Metal Candlestick Base – 7¾″ Ø × 17″ H

Description : This antique candlestick base features a tall, turned wooden column with painted accents and cast metal top and base elements. The tripod-style ball feet and layered turning details suggest 19th-century craftsmanship, while the distressed paintwork shows remnants of black and ochre/yellow finishes. Once part of a lamp or large candle holder, it now stands as a sculptural decorative object with strong folk and primitive appeal.
