About the Item

This pair of Spanish Colonial-style iron prickets, dating from the early 20th century or possibly 19th century, is a striking example of hand-forged craftsmanship from a bygone era. Crafted in the tradition of Spanish Colonial metalwork, these prickets feature a central stem adorned with four meticulously hand-forged roundels, which ascend in a graceful, rhythmic pattern. The prickets rest upon three elegantly splayed feet, further exemplifying the organic yet functional design characteristic of Spanish Colonial aesthetics. The distressed, rusted surface of each pricket tells the story of centuries of use and exposure, enhancing their historical and visual appeal. The patina, developed over time, lends these prickets a timeless quality that underscores their authenticity and age, evoking the rustic charm and enduring beauty of early Colonial furniture and lighting. These prickets, once used as candle holders, are remarkable not only for their utilitarian function but also for their artistic form, showcasing the Spanish Colonial blending of European craftsmanship with indigenous design influences. The combination of wrought iron and the sculptural roundels, coupled with the splayed feet, creates a harmonious balance of strength and grace. Measures: 19" h x 9.5" w.

Pair of Hand Forged 18th Century Spanish Iron Torchere Candle Holders

Pair of Hand Forged 18th Century Spanish Iron Torchere Candle Holders

Located in Dallas, TX

Full of charm and character, this pair of iron torchere candle holders were hand-forged in Spain during the 1700s. The visible strike marks made by the blacksmith, along with the flattened pin that affixes the highly scrolled arms add subtle nuances to the 21-inch tall candlesticks. At the end of each arm is a torch-like light sconce with a banded noix at the bottom, topped by a flat bobeche with a thin rim and a folded cylindrical capital. Rising a few inches above is a third light source with an identical bobeche and capital that extends from the central column. The three-light spread is supported by tripod bases featuring sinuous legs that have been embellished by roundels set within thin fluting. Our pair of Spanish torchere...
