Pair of 'Lichfield' Hand Forged Iron Candlesticks 49cm | Large

The three spires of Lichfield Cathedral have risen over Staffordshire for centuries, making it the only medieval cathedral in England with three. Locals know them as the Ladies of the Vale.

This matching pair of candlesticks echoes their tall, slender shape. Each one has a narrow stem that climbs from a sturdy base to a flared cup made to hold a taper candle.

A blacksmith forges every candlestick by hand from wrought iron. The hammer marks you can see on the base, stem, and cup come from working the metal in the traditional way.

That handmade process gives every piece its own slight variations in texture, so your pair will be one of a kind.

At 49cm, these are the tallest candlesticks in the Lichfield range. They make a real statement on a mantelpiece, hall console, or sideboard, lifting the candlelight high to fill the room. A broad hammered base gives each one a steady footing.

Set one at each end of a mantel to frame the fireplace, or place them together on a console for a dramatic focal point.

For a tiered display, the Lichfield candlesticks also come as a set of three in graduated heights. The 29.5cm and 39cm heights are each available as matching pairs too.

Designed to fit a standard taper candle with a 22mm diameter.
