Antique Brass Cast-Iron Candle Holders, Set of 2

A weighted cast-iron pair in a mottled antique-brass finish - one tall taper holder and one chamberstick with a looped handle, which is the piece that makes a supper table look like a novel. The weight is the point: nobody tips these reaching across for the bread.

Good to know: Cast iron with an applied finish, not solid brass. The antiquing is deliberately uneven, so the two pieces read as a found pair rather than a matched set - charming if that is what you want, irritating if it is not.
