Create an unforgettable candlelight display with this vintage wrought iron candelabra featuring eleven removable clear glass vessels. The dramatic tiered centerpiece rises approximately 9 inches and creates an architectural focal point from every direction.


Eleven matching cups transform the frame into a spectacular votive candle holder for dining tables, mantels or special events. Each clear glass cup measures approximately 3 inches tall and features a distinctive projecting rim.


The sculptural black framework gives this vintage iron candle holder a sophisticated presence even when it is not illuminated. Its elevated design creates a beautiful multi level candle display with light positioned across three separate tiers.


One vessel crowns the top while three form the middle level. Seven additional cups create the expansive lower arrangement of this 11 light candelabra.


The removable vessels also make this an exceptional floral centerpiece for miniature arrangements or individual blossoms. Mix flowers with candles to create an elegant wedding table decoration with impressive dimension.


Clear glass against the dark framework gives this black metal centerpiece a timeless architectural appearance. It can transition beautifully from everyday décor to an elaborate dining table centerpiece for holidays and celebrations.


All eleven vessels are included with the stand, creating the complete 12 piece candleholder set shown in the photographs.


THE GLASS CUPS

Each clear glass vessel has a substantial, simple silhouette:


Height: approximately 3"
Opening: approximately 2.5"
Form: tapered
Rim: wide projecting/flared lip
Three Tiers last tier is the one on top.
Quantity: 11 matching cups

Weight: Approximately 6 pounds


The clear glass allows the black framework to remain visible through the vessels, giving the entire piece a clean architectural look.


COLLECTOR'S INSIGHT

The strongest feature of this piece is the combination of scale and repetition. Eleven individual glass vessels arranged vertically create far greater presence than the typical three- or five-votive tabletop holder.


The removable matching glass cups are also important. With vintage or previously owned multi-light candleholders, missing or mismatched glass inserts can significantly affect desirability. A set retaining all 11 matching vessels is much more attractive to a buyer seeking a complete display.


Its neutral combination of clear glass and black iron also allows it to work across several decorating styles, including modern, industrial, traditional, rustic and transitional interiors.


MULTIPLE WAYS TO USE IT

Although its primary purpose is as an 11-light votive centerpiece, the removable glass vessels make it much more versatile.

It can be styled with votive candles or appropriately sized tealights for a cascading candlelight display. The individual cups can also hold tiny floral arrangements, individual flower heads, greenery, faux botanicals, or other decorative elements.


For weddings and events, alternating flowers and candles among the 11 vessels could make an especially striking table centerpiece.

Without anything in the cups, the black metal framework itself has a sculptural, almost architectural quality.


IMPORTANT FUNCTION OF THE RIM

The unusual glass shape isn't merely decorative.

The projecting lip acts as a mechanical stop. The narrower lower section passes into the iron ring while the wider lip remains above it.


That is an excellent feature to explain in the listing because a buyer seeing the individual glass cups may otherwise wonder why they have that particular shape.


DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION

This is a dramatic three-tier 11-light candle centerpiece constructed around a black metal framework.

The frame rises from a broad circular base into a pyramid-like tower. Curved metal supports and circular holders create a sculptural appearance even when the candles are not lit.


Unlike candleholders where glass vessels simply sit on a flat shelf, these cups are designed to be suspended within individual metal rings. The wider glass lip rests above each ring while the tapered portion extends below it.

That construction creates the distinctive floating appearance visible in your photographs.

The 11 individual lights are distributed across three elevations. This produces considerably more visual impact than a flat multi-votive centerpiece because the candle flames appear at different heights.


MEASUREMENTS

Overall assembled height: 10/11"
Glass cup height: approximately 3"
Glass cup top diameter: approximately 2.5"
Number of votives: 11

Width is 13/14 inches wide at base. 

The glass cups have a tapered body with a pronounced projecting upper lip. That lip is important because it rests on the circular metal supports and prevents the cups from dropping through the rings.

I would not put an overall width in the listing yet because the photographs don't provide a reliable horizontal measurement.
