Shown below are reproduction candlesticks, originally designed by Chicago metal smith Robert Jarvie around 1902. They are faithful copies of the rare originals, hand cast and finished in solid bronze. They are spectacular alone or in pairs, and are beautifully complemented by our hand-dipped beeswax candles.

Robert Jarvie, a Chicagoan, was the premier candlestick designer of the Arts & Crafts period. His work represented a unique fusion of traditional and modern sensibilities. He incorporated the lessons of extreme simplicity and stylization learned from the Prairie School with the high degree of craftsmanship that typified the Arts & Crafts aesthetic. Jarvie produced a line of candlesticks, named after letters of the Greek alphabet, that transformed a utilitarian object into an exquisite work of art. Gustav Stickley, praising Jarvie's work in his Craftsman magazine, called it sublime, and noted that nothing of lesser quality should ever be placed near one of his candlesticks. | |
