No-one's mentioned candle sticks for some while, so.....
I've just bought this very kitsch large candelabra at a local boot sale. I'm still not sure quite what to think about it, but it will be wonderful somewhere, up at the Tobacco drying barn.

My 'design' ambition for the barn interior is for it to be very simple in a rustic/bucolic way, but with the occasional spectacular antique, sculpture, or 'object' thrown in for good measure. So this should be perfect for the kitchen, a bedside table, or even the 'bog'.
I should add that our work, up at the barn, is not advancing at the rate we had hoped for. Our bloody JCB man (who is supposed to be laying down the concrete floor) sees time very differently to all other folk. He is very much a mañana man..... It could be years!
Looks good on your outside table.
ReplyDeleteWow! Nine Candle-powered candelabra! You'll be the envy of all the locals (besides lighting up the night skies!) lol!
ReplyDeleteMorning Cro - I rather like that - I can just see you lighting the candles on a summer evening - sipping your wine and eating sardines.
ReplyDeleteWow! Provenance - the Liberace estate (piano-top section)? I like it!
ReplyDeleteDo you think it's camp enough for Liberace?
DeleteI always imagined you to be the kind of guy who would have a classy lav :-)
ReplyDeleteI approve - either tasteful or the exact opposite is my motto. I don't think it's a good idea to take naked flames into the lav, though.
ReplyDeleteWow! Real diamonds!
ReplyDeleteNothing but the real thing!
DeleteWhat a nice accent for an outside room. I love putting the unexpected in my outdoor spaces.
ReplyDeleteQuite a conversation piece!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a neat find! And I love the idea of mixing rustic with splashes of spectacular. After all, surprise is what makes life interesting.
ReplyDeletePhew, stinking hot here. Spent most of the day in the pool. 32C in shade, 27C in pool.
ReplyDeleteEver so tasteful and suitably chic...
ReplyDeleteWell, I thought so...
DeleteI love finding things like this in rustic bogs.
ReplyDeleteIf you can't find a spot for it Cro, let me know, I have at least two places it would work beautifully!
ReplyDeleteOh I love I love! You have impeccable taste.
ReplyDeleteBling in a barn. The magpie in me loves it.
