An elegant pair of vintage porcelain candle holders with intricate hand painted decoration inspired by traditional oriental ceramics. The square footed bases taper upwards in a subtly curved silhouette, each adorned with delicate motifs featuring stylised vases, foliage, and florals in a palette of soft greens, dusky pinks, and touches of gold.

The fine brushwork and gentle colour transitions reflect a careful, skilled hand, while the black and gold edging on the top and base adds a refined frame to the overall design. These candle holders feel both decorative and timeless, perfect for those who love classic interiors with an eclectic or chinoiserie twist.

Likely mid to late 20th century. The bases are unmarked but the form and detailing suggest a Japanese or Chinese export piece, designed for the Western market.

In excellent vintage condition. Minor wear to painted areas as expected with age, but overall clean and vibrant.

Style Notes: These work beautifully on a dining table, mantelpiece, or console. Pair with soft toned taper candles for a romantic layered look.

Dimensions: 21cm x 9cm
