Its exact age … more This striking Baccarat crystal candlestick holder is a rare and unique piece, acquired from a Boston estate. Its exact age and history are unknown, but its design is reminiscent of the modernist works created by Jacques Adnet for Baccarat in the 1930s-1940s. The two-piece design forms a distinctive crisscross pattern, holding four candles for a dramatic and elegant display.

Crafted with the precision and quality that Baccarat is known for, this candlestick holder weighs an impressive 4.85 pounds, giving it a substantial and luxurious feel. The smaller top piece fits securely on the larger base, creating a seamless, sculptural look.

There is a small chip and a hairline crack on the underside corner of the smaller piece (as highlighted in the photos), but these imperfections are not visible when displayed. The underside of the larger base shows a few surface scratches consistent with age and gentle handling, but no chips or cracks.

This exceptional Baccarat candlestick holder would be a stunning addition to any collection of fine crystal or as a centerpiece in a modern or art deco-inspired home.
