A striking 3 piece set of monumental floor-standing cast brass candle pillars with ornate pierced florid designs. Its design creates striking candlelight patterns, perfect for cozy home ambience or as a charming gift. The candle holders are made of solid brass and feature a tall, pillar-like structure. The design includes multiple stacked, ornate sections with openwork, spherical elements and engraved details. They are designed to rest on the floor, with wide, stable bases and disk-style holders at the top to hold pillar candles. Indian brass craftsmanship is known for its intricate detailing and traditional techniques. The design is based on similar pillars that were traditionally temples for rituals and decoration. The set includes 3 bases, 3 top sections with a spike to hold a candle, and 20 pillar sections. These come apart and will be shipped in pieces that screw together very easily. (All except one of the top sections, which simply rests on the section and does not screw on). We currently have the largest pillar with 9 sections (plus the base and top candle platform), the middle one with 7 sections, and the shortest one with 4. MEASUREMENTS Shorter pillar - 33 ½ (85.1 cm) Tall Medium pillar - 57 in (144.8 cm) tall Tallest pillar – 67 in (170.2 cm) tall Base is 11 in (27.9 cm) diameter. Sections range between 4 ½ in (11.4 cm) and 5 in (12.7 cm) diameter. Weighs 40 lbs 12 oz. CONDITION All the sections have significant oxidation; however, the level of oxidation varies. The edge of the one top section is dented. That is the only significant dent (see photo). One of the top sections is not original to the set and simply rests on top of the lower section, rather than screws in. We have used a putty to prevent it from being accidentally knocked off. Add a touch of elegance and drama to your space with this set of exquisite towering vintage brass candle pillars. Period: 1970s Origin: India Materials: Brass Dimensions: 11"W × 11"D × 67"H
