Baroque Brass 5-Arm Candelabra with Dragon Serpent Arms & Acanthus Base

Design & Inspiration

Few decorative objects command a room's attention quite like a great candelabra, and this five-arm Baroque brass candelabra in the tradition of 17th-century European court craftsmanship does precisely that. Inspired by the grand ecclesiastical and palatial lighting fixtures of the Baroque period — when drama, monumentality, and lavish ornament were the defining virtues of fine craftsmanship — this piece brings the visual grandeur of Versailles and the salons of Rome into the modern interior. Its silhouette rises with deliberate authority: a tripartite scrolled base, a richly carved baluster stem, and five sweeping arms that unfurl like the necks of mythical dragons, each terminating in a petal-form drip tray and cylindrical candle cup.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Cast and finished entirely in solid brass, this luxury candelabra is the work of skilled Egyptian artisans who honor the heritage of European metalwork through time-intensive hand-finishing techniques. The brass casting captures extraordinary detail — note the scaled texture of each serpentine dragon arm, the deeply modelled acanthus leaves cascading down the baluster stem, and the bold rosette and scroll relief work on the quadrilobed base. Each piece is hand-polished to a high-luster finish that catches and radiates candlelight with theatrical warmth. At 4 kg, the candelabra possesses genuine physical presence and heft — a quality that distinguishes fine handcrafted brasswork from lightweight decorative reproductions.

Dimensions & Details

Weighing 4 kg, this candelabra is a substantial table centerpiece suitable for formal dining tables, console tables in grand hallways, or as a focal point on a fireplace mantel. The five candle arms are arranged symmetrically — four lateral arms extending outward at mid-height and one central arm rising to crown the composition — providing balanced, ambient candlelight across a wide area. The petal-shaped drip trays beneath each cup add an additional layer of Rococo-inflected decorative detail while serving a practical function. Available in multiple brass finishes to complement your interior palette.

Handcrafted in Egypt

At Brass & Wood, every piece is made in Egypt by master artisans whose craft tradition draws on both the rich heritage of Egyptian metalwork and the exacting standards of classical European decorative arts. This candelabra is a faithful interpretation of Baroque lighting design — not mass-produced, but individually cast, hand-finished, and quality-inspected before leaving our workshop. Our commitment is to deliver heirloom-quality decorative objects that will be passed down through generations. Customization in finish color is available upon request.
