Pair of Antique French Theatre Prop Candelabra
- Description
- Condition & Authenticity
This rare pair of antique French theatre prop candelabra transforms historic stage architecture into monumental sculptural lighting objects. Originally created for use in opera houses or theatrical productions, each piece is conceived as a tall classical column crowned with multi-arm candle-style sconces, resulting in a dramatic and architectural presence.
The columns are richly decorated with hand-painted neoclassical motifs, including scrolling foliage, garlands, braided bands, and classical ornamentation. An aged blue and gold painted finish covers the surfaces, exhibiting authentic wear, patina, and tonal variation that preserve the character of historical stage craftsmanship. Carved bases and ornate candle arms further reflect European theatrical and architectural traditions, lending the pair visual depth and authority.
Designed to function as statement objects rather than conventional lighting, these candelabra operate at the intersection of sculpture, architecture, and theatre. Displayed together, they bring height, rhythm, and symmetry to grand interiors, galleries, theatrical spaces, hospitality settings, or curated residential environments—introducing a sense of old-world drama and monumental scale.

Our collection consists primarily of antique, vintage, and curated objects.
Each piece reflects the passage of time through natural wear, patina, surface variation, and material aging. These characteristics are not considered flaws, but integral to the object’s history, authenticity, and character.
Minor imperfections, variations, and signs of age are inherent to vintage and antique pieces and contribute to their uniqueness and individuality. We celebrate these qualities as part of the beauty of collected interiors and heritage objects.
All sales are final. Due to the nature of antique and vintage items, returns and exchanges are not accepted. We encourage clients to review all descriptions and images carefully and to reach out with any questions prior to purchase.
