Substantial vintage five-light brass candelabra crafted in the Hollywood Regency / Neoclassical Revival style, dating to the mid-20th century. This piece is constructed from solid flat brass stock, not lightweight plated metal, giving it a noticeable weight of 2.76 pounds and excellent structural stability—an immediate distinction from modern decorative reproductions.
Designed at a refined 12-inch height, this candelabra was intentionally proportioned for use on mantels, dining tables, and sideboards, providing dramatic candlelight without overwhelming surrounding artwork or mirrors. The piece features a purpose-built modular design, with mechanically fastened arms that allow it to be displayed either in a classic fan or horseshoe formation for a formal centerpiece, or reconfigured into a linear arrangement ideal for a mantel or long surface.
Each arm supports a thick, clear glass hurricane cup with a rolled, scalloped rim. The glass shows subtle organic variation consistent with vintage production and is designed to seat securely within brass collars rather than resting loosely, as seen in later décor versions. All five cups are matching and original to the piece.
Unmarked, as is common with well-made decorative brass from this period, the candelabra reflects the balanced proportions, material integrity, and thoughtful engineering associated with higher-quality mid-century entertaining pieces. When lit, the glass softly diffuses candlelight, creating a warm and elegant focal point.
