About this work

The foot, stem, and drip pan are cast in one piece. The candle pin is soldered to the bottom of the drip pan in two places. The profiled pin has a horizontal hole at the bottom. The profiled conical foot transitions into a stem, which is baluster-shaped at the top, and then into a profiled drip pan. All parts are adorned with rings, the baluster also with fluting. The foot and stem are hollow inside. The stand ring of the foot is turned on the inside.
