Gothic Revival wrought iron two-light pricket candelabra, sourced from Belgium. The forked yoke form with a central pricket spike rising between the two candle arms gives this piece a silhouette that reads as much sculptural object as functional candlestick. The base is demountable, a construction detail typical of ecclesiastical ironwork made for transport and storage, and it locks into the stem solidly. Everything here is hand-forged: the hammer marks are visible across every surface, and the scrolled tripod feet with their flattened terminals show the confident hand of a smith working in a well-established tradition.
The candelabra is in good condition consistent with age and ecclesiastical use. The hand-forged wrought iron surface shows overall pitting and oxidation across the stem, yoke, and base, appropriate for iron of this period. The hammer marks and surface texture of the forging are intact and clearly readable. The demountable base fits the stem securely. No active rust or structural compromise is visible. One of the conical candle sockets shows a small split at the rim, visible in the detail photograph, which should be noted by buyers intending functional use. The scrolled tripod feet are intact with no losses or repairs visible.
