Multi-Tiered Wrought Iron and Glass Votive Candle Holder

This is a multi-tiered votive candle holder or tea light holder, constructed from dark-colored, likely wrought iron or a similar metal, with a rustic or traditional aesthetic. The holder features a central vertical shaft that branches out to support multiple individual glass cups. There appear to be at least 15 clear glass cups, varying slightly in size, suggesting they are designed to hold small candles. The metal frame has a matte black or very dark brown finish, showing some minor wear and possibly some dust accumulation. The design includes a circular base ring for stability with radiating arms that elevate some cups, and a central column that extends upwards with additional levels and arms for more cups. The top of the central column forms a decorative loop, potentially for carrying or as an ornamental element. The glass cups are generally cylindrical with a slightly wider mouth and appear to be mass-produced, molded glass, lacking any discernible artisanal marks or significant imperfections. There are no visible chips or cracks in the glass cups themselves, but their surfaces appear somewhat dusty and could benefit from cleaning. The overall condition suggests regular use and some age, but no significant damage or repairs are immediately apparent. The craftsmanship appears to be functional and decorative, typical of common home decor items from the late 20th or early 21st century. The piece aims to create ambient lighting through multiple small flames.
