Japanese Edo Period Iron Candlestand Candlestick Holder

So typical of the old Japanese ethnographic objects, the design of this Edo period single candle stand is totally simple and wonderfully functional. With a lighted candle, this Japanese candlestand could be easily carried about the house by use of long very gently curved handle. When set in down, the placement of the 3 legs makes it very stable to minimize chances of it being accidentally knocked over. It is the ultimate piece of folk art.

Made of iron, this candlestick holder has aged gracefully, obtaining a softly pitted surface and one small chip on the edge of the candle plate. Circa 1800, it measures 13" long 5 inches high.
