This brass candlestick was designed by J.C. Stoffels for Onder den Sint Maarten (Haarlem, Netherlands 1900-1905).
It is about 10 inches high and beautifully decorated with rivets.
Jan Eisenloeffel, who was the most famous Dutch designer in this kind of work in metal, also used these a lot of rivets in his designs.
These were sold mostly as a pair.
