Chinese Hand-Carved Hardstone Lotus Flower Candle Holders
$90
I am selling a Pair of Vintage Chinese Hand-Carved Hardstone Lotus Flower Candle Holders in excellent condition. An exquisite matching pair of vintage Chinese "Everlasting Flower" candle holders. These are masterfully hand-crafted pieces, likely dating from the mid-20th century, and are in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks.
Materials & Craftsmanship:
* Petals & Leaves: Intricately hand-carved from semi-precious hardstone (Agate/Chalcedony) with a beautiful celadon-green hue and natural translucency.
* Construction: Each individual petal and leaf is secured to a flexible wire stem wrapped in traditional green silk thread.
* Center Detail: The heart of each lotus features a candle receptacle accented by meticulous wire-wrapped yellow beadwork (stamen).
* Adjustability: The silk-wrapped wire stems allow you to gently reshape and pose the flowers and leaves to your preference.
* Versatility: While designed as decorative candle holders for small tapers, they are also stunning as standalone "scholar’s desk" sculptures or curio cabinet accents. Their delicate, ethereal glow makes them a perfect centerpiece for Chinoiserie or vintage-inspired decor.
* Condition: Excellent. The silk wrapping is well-preserved, and all carved stone elements are intact.
Dimensions (approximate):
* Length: 7"
* Width: 6"
* Height: 3"
Comes from a pet and smoke-free environment.
