Levant Antiqued Cast Taper Holders

Evoking the weathered weight of historical Mediterranean and Levantine metalwork, this set of three hand-cast taper holders brings a time-worn, cultural gravity to contemporary spaces. Hand-cast with an intricately pitted surface and burnished brass patina, these slender architectural stems offer timeless, atmospheric lighting across entry consoles, dining tables, or low-profile sideboards.

FEATURES

• Cast metal construction with a heavily pitted, antiqued brass aesthetic
• Weathered, softly burnished brass finish exhibiting warm bronze and amber undertones
• Sand-cast production process featuring authentic, hand-finished surface irregularities
• Slender, organic pillar silhouettes terminating in classic urn-shaped candle sockets
• Broad, weighted circular disc bases ensuring exceptional stability
• Designed specifically for indoor decorative lighting and sculptural display
• Accommodates standard taper candles (candles not included)
• Non-stackable trio of graduated heights set of 3 a large 30cm x 8.5cm pillar kept proudly on top, alongside the medium (25.5cm x 8.5cm) and small (20.5cm x 8.5cm) sizes for dynamic grouping.

Rising in slender, sculptural silhouettes, this set of three cast taper holders creates an inviting, historic focal point. Light catches the softly burnished, pitted exterior, casting warm highlights across the weathered surface while grounding surrounding decor with quiet gravity.

Inspired by 17th-century Levantine foundry arts and early Mediterranean sand-casting traditions, each piece celebrates time-honored metalworking techniques. The rustic, unrefined texture allows the historic warmth of the metal to take center stage without overpowering modern settings.

The patinated brass finish displays rich tonal variations ranging from pale champagne gold to deeply oxidized bronze. Dense pitted detailing and subtle surface pooling enhance its mineral depth, giving the metal an authentically aged character.

Cast in three distinct heights, each holder pairs a wide, weighted circular base with a slender stem featuring a central knop and an urn cup. Subtle irregularities along each shaft highlight the artisanal sand-casting and hand-finishing process.

Group the trio alongside a dark stone vessel on a dining table, or stagger them along an entry console against raw linen textiles and stacked art books. Paired with natural beeswax tapers, they cast a flickering, atmospheric warmth across muted interiors.

Exclusivity:

No two surfaces emerge identically. Tonal shifts, texture, and subtle irregularities are the quiet signature of the maker’s hand.
