Two Candlestands
Large candlestands of this type served to support candelabra for three or more candles. They stood in the corners of sumptuously furnished interiors, or sometimes in larger series along galleries. At the end of the seventeenth century large numbers of comparable candlestands were delivered for the palace at Versailles. The French model was also copied in England and the Netherlands.
