Neoclassical Style Pillar Candle Holder

This item is a decorative pillar candle holder designed in a traditional Neoclassical or 'Old World' style, featuring an urn-shaped body with dual scrolled handles. It stands approximately 8 to 10 inches tall and appears to be constructed from a molded cast resin or polyresin material rather than genuine metal or carved stone. The finish is a multi-toned faux bronze or antiqued gold, achieved through paint and chemical patinas to simulate aged metal. The central bulbous body is vertically fluted with a marbled amber and gold finish. The piece is supported by a square, tiered pedestal base with ornate scrolled relief carvings. Condition-wise, the item shows significant distress; there is noticeable paint loss, chipping, and flaking on the fluted sections of the body, revealing a lighter base material beneath. Such wear suggests a late 20th-century mass-manufactured origin (circa 1990s-2000s) intended for home decor retail. No clear maker's marks are visible, and the craftsmanship is indicative of mold-pressed production rather than hand-forged artistry. Despite the surface damage, the structure remains intact, serving as a functional piece of decorative table lighting.
