Candlestick

Juste-Aurèle Meissonnier

Cleveland Museum of Art

Gold candlestick with a wide, round base featuring a decorative edge. The stem of the candlestick is ornate and twisted, resembling a piece of fabric or a leafy vine. The stem has a wavy, organic shape with curved lines and swirling patterns. The top of the candlestick is cup-shaped and flares out slightly. The entire piece appears to be made of metal, possibly brass or bronze, and has a shiny, reflective surface. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
