Vintage Mid-Century Brass Angel Taper Candle Holder - Abstract Praying Cherub w/ Large Wings

She stands in silent adoration, head bowed, hands clasped in eternal prayer, while two sweeping copper wings rise behind her like a quiet hymn frozen in metal. The body is solid brass, turned and polished to a soft conical grace, its trumpet-like candle cup lifted as an offering to the coming light. Handcrafted in Mexico during the great mid-century surge of folk-art metalwork, she carries the unmistakable warmth of an era when artisans shaped devotion with hammer and fire. Time has written its own gentle scripture across her surface: verdigris blooms in tender turquoise along the seams, brass has softened to honeyed gold, and the wings have deepened to a rich, earthy glow. Every mark is honest; every fleck of patina a testament to decades spent on Christmas mantels, beside Advent wreaths, or simply watching over quiet family dinners where stories were told by candlelight. This is not a mass-produced ornament. This is a prayer made tangible; an angel who has already kept vigil through countless seasons and now asks only to keep yours. Place a single taper in her keeping, strike the match, and watch how softly she transforms darkness into reverence. Discovered by Treasures Of Bako - Have we got a gem for you!
