A single-light candlestick designed in the Empire style, constructed with gilt-metal effect components and green malachite? sections. The piece features a circular tiered base with beaded and engine-turned borders, rising to a cylindrical malachite? pedestal. The central stem is composed of a malachite? baluster flanked by cast foliate and acanthus leaf collars. The upper portion includes a decorative basket-weave patterned collar and a beaded drip pan supporting a cylindrical sconce. Attached to the base via a swivel hinge is a matching gilt-metal effect rod terminating in a conical candle snuffer. The malachite? appears as a polished veneer, possibly over a stone or metal core. The item is accompanied by a green spiral-twist wax candle.
Height: 25 cm.
