Due to custom regulations we can not ship outside the E.U. Please make sure you have an EU shipping address before bidding.
Late Roman to early Byzantine beautiful and elegant style bronze candlestick - tripod stand for an oil lamp. The rounded feet are in the shape of paws of an animal; a heavy, skirt-like form is draped around the legs.
Above that is an elegant, columnar stem with various disc-like forms along its length. The mid section of the stem is hexagonal shaped. It is capped by a steep-walled, circular drip pan with a spike through it to attach to a bronze oil lamp or to function as a candle.
Height: ± 24 cm
Width: ± 11,5 cm (base)
Condition: very good and solid condition. One little knob from the base skirt is missing. Fantastic olive-green and smooth patina with areas of cuprite. Some signs of wear, consistent with age and use. See images.
Certificate of Authenticity: available upon request (pdf-format).
HISTORY
Bronze lamps and candlesticks were a sign of luxury and were reserved for the elite and wealthier classes. They were safeguarded and passed down as precious heirlooms for several generations.
Byzantine lamps were a continuation of the Roman lamps. The rising influence of Christianity and increased use in Byzantine churches changed the decorative elements and iconography.
The style was popular and several production centers for it arose; ultimately they were distributed widely throughout the Eastern Roman Empire, reaching Asia Minor and even Central Europe.
