Wrought-Iron Candelabrum

697
This forged iron candelabrum (16th–17th cc.) was designed to light colonial interiors long before electricity. Both utilitarian and decorative, it stood at the center of gatherings, casting shadows on carved furniture and painted ceramics. Its enduring form speaks to craftsmanship and the atmospheric life of early Spanish America.
