Looking for something different ?

Here's an original hand forged wall mount candle holder.

The dragon starts out as 1/2" square stock steel and comes to life on the anvil under the hammer blows at a yellow/orange heat. Details to the head are then added using hand held punches that I made.

After the head is complete, it's back to the fire to heat and form the body into a smooth "S" shape ending with a pointed scrolled tail.

The wings are laser cut, I bring them to an orange heat in the forge and hammer them all around to give them texture and match the hand forged dragon.

Time to join the dragon to it's wings. I use a large iron rivet and hand hammer it from behind followed by two spot welds, again from behind, keeping everything clean.

Next, the candle holder part was forged out of 1/4" solid round rod and displays one of my favorite twists to make and to look at. The twist actually looks like small uneven blocks on top of each other but it really is a twist made at a red heat.
Below the twist is an opening with a ring (my maker's mark "Naz" is stamped on this ring), this is where the thick glass candle holder sits, the glass holder accepts easy to find candles up to 1 3/4" in diameter (such as tea light candles, etc)...

I put a lot of importance in cleaning my items after they have been hammered, bent into shape, and "in and out" of the fire numerous times...I acheive the clean look you see in the photos by using the wire wheel and sandpaper, this leaves each item with a clean attractive look that is perfect for gift giving...

After cleaning, I clear coat the dragon candle holder for protection and to keep the raw iron look.

This signed metal sculpture is a highly decorative and functional piece of wall art, please note that this is a decorative item, lighting a candle always comes with a safety hazard, lighting a candle with this item is at owner's risk...

Measurements are approximately 14" high x 10" wide, tongue sticks out approximately 7" from the wall .

Candle is not included.

Included are 4 decorative wood screws.
