A candelabrum (plural candelabra, but also used as the singular form in modern times) is a candle holder with multiple arms. The term “candelabra” can be used to describe a variety of candle holders including chandeliers, although those exclusively hang from the ceiling while all other forms can be carried or rested on a surface. The Romans used the term to describe a form of ornamental lighting, and in Judaism the menorah and hanukkiah are special kinds of candelabra. Candelabra are also used in church ceremonies in certain Eastern Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Church liturgy, such as the dikirion and trikirion. Candelabra in the form of branched candlesticks also became popular in homes as decorative lighting starting in the 16th Century. In modern times electricity has largely relegated candleholders to decorative use in homes, with interior designers still incorporating candelabra and candlesticks into their lighting accessories as a way to convey elegance and luxury. 

We cannot guarantee the working condition of any piece of lighting. Commensurate with age.
