These impressively tall brass pillar candle holders feature intricate hand-engraved floral detailing in a Mughal-inspired style, with a light traditional fill that highlights the pattern and adds depth.
The contrasting fill sits within the engraved lines and can be left as found or gently removed to preference. It enhances the detail beautifully and reflects a common decorative technique used in brasswork of this kind.
Each stands approximately 28 inches tall with a balanced, architectural form that works well on mantels, consoles, or flanking artwork.
A striking pair with presence—substantial, detailed, and versatile across traditional, collected, or globally inspired interiors.
I have very lightly polished these to keep the paintwork intact. Likely Indian origin, drawing from traditional Mughal floral engraving techniques commonly produced for export in the mid-20th century.
