About this work
The object consists of the following parts: the foot, stem, and drip pan cast as one piece, the candle spike, and the three feet. The stem is solid. The profiled conical foot transitions into the round stem with one knop. The round recessed drip pan and the candle spike are attached to it. The round recessed drip pan has four ornaments in the raised wall, consisting of perforations in the form of a trefoil. The foot, stem, and drip pan are decorated with fine grooved rings. The candlestick has three lugs on the inside, to which the three feet in the form of fanciful animals are attached. These are not original.
