Height: 90 cm Diameter: 60 cm A brief history of the candlestick The candlestick emerged in the Middle Ages as the essential nomadic tool to transport one’s flame without burning oneself. Under Louis XIV, it became a radical class marker: the nobility burned refined beeswax, while the common people endured the foul smell of tallow candles. Wax was such a precious commodity that the servants of royal palaces systematically collected the drippings in the cup to resell them, turning every residue into profit. In the 18th century, it gained finesse with the invention of the removable candle holder to facilitate maintenance, establishing itself as the indispensable companion of the bedtime ritual long before the arrival of electricity.
