18th Century Italian Candlestick with Freeform Glass & Baroque Pearls on Bobeche

About the Item

18th century Italian candlestick decorated with free-forming glass and baroque pearls on an Italian glass bobeche base. The 18th century candlestick is from Tuscany. It is hand carved and hand painted with brownish-red metallic paint. It is placed on an Italian bobeche base. Hand-molded freeform glass is mounted on top with coordinating baroque pearls. The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she created the piece and the period shows that the candlestick top is originally 18th century. The Italian candlestick artifact, free-formed glass, baroque pearls, and bobeche are put together in a sculptural form - creating a piece that appears to have evolved together over time. Interpreting the past to create a piece entirely original, evolving in its own right.
