The foot rests on the straight-walled base. An ojive profile adorned with acanthus leaves and above it a sphere profile adorned with fasces surrounded by a flat plate; on which eight volumes adorned with acanthus leaves are arranged radially. They wear a hollowly curved rosette made of acanthus leaves; which is crowned by a smooth band. The columnar trunk rises above it; with a convex arched base; a fluted shaft and a Corinthian capital; which serves as a candleholder. The top piece; which consists of three S-shaped; fluted arms; fits from a core made up of different leaf wreaths with a crown in the shape of the heart of the acanthus plant. Leaf leaves also swing from this core; bending along the top and bottom of the first part of the arms. The arms each end again in superimposed wreaths of acanthus leaves; above which the candle holder made up of the same leaves rises. A few leaves of the various leaf wreaths have been renewed.
