This pair of candelabra features a striking combination of wrought iron and vibrant yellow glass. Each piece is constructed with a tapered glass column, encased in an elaborate wrought iron framework. The iron structure is designed with scrolling, vine-like forms, incorporating floral and foliate motifs that wind around the glass base and extend outward into the arms of the candelabra.

Each candelabrum is topped with five candle arms, arranged symmetrically around a central spiral finial. The arms feature curved iron scrolls terminating in foliate candle cups, which are further detailed with sculpted floral elements. The base is formed of scrolling iron supports, creating stability while enhancing the elaborate design.

The use of wrought iron in combination with colored glass is reminiscent of early 20th-century European decorative arts, particularly in the Art Nouveau or Gothic Revival styles. The craftsmanship showcases traditional ironworking techniques, with the intricate scrolls and floral embellishments demonstrating skilled hand-forging methods. The striking contrast between the dark iron and the luminous yellow glass suggests these pieces were designed as statement lighting fixtures, possibly for a grand interior setting.
