Notes
Square base with rounded corners and beveled curved edges. The border of the base has a floral and filigreed design. The centre of the base tapers upwards into a column, divided into petal-like sections. A smaller square base, also with rounded corners and curved edges, is found between the base and top column; a filigreed pattern is also found along the edge. The top column is cylindrical with a wider metal bubble in the centre. Attached at the very top of this column is a candle holder. Coming out of each side of the column's bubble is an arm. Each arm twists slightly around the base, with candle holders on each end. There are 3 matching candle holders in total. Each one has a wide round base which tapers in at the centre and then widens at the top. Attached to the top of each is a square, with rounded corners with curved edges, again with the filigree and floral pattern along the edges (which mirrors that of the base). The top surface is smooth, with a rounded space cut out of the centre with a raised rim.
