Exhibition catalogue; 217 Werke aus der Sammlung Han Coray, Museum zu Allerheiligen Schaffhausen, 1970, no. 162.

Candelabra stands such as this, more commonly in marble, would have been finished with a bronze candle stand and possibly feet as well. They are likely to have been used in pairs flanking a doorway or entrance. For similar in marble cf. 'Triangular Base with Reliefs', Smith College Museum of Art, Northampton, inv. no. SC 1921:17-1.
