Baccarat Bambou Tors Crystal Candlesticks Pair
Baccarat Bambou Tors Crystal Candlesticks Pair
Light, caught mid-spiral…..
It’s actually pretty satisfying to see how these Baccarat Bambou Tors candlesticks catch the light. They’re made of heavy lead crystal that starts out as a plain cylinder before it takes this slow, spiraling twist, it almost makes the glass look like it's still molten.
We really like the little rope-like collar at the neck. It’s a subtle nod to the fact that these come from a historic crystal house, but it’s done with enough restraint that it doesn’t feel fussy. They have a lot of weight when you pick them up, too. Even without a candle in them, they have enough presence to just sit on a table and look like a piece of sculpture.

Black & Gold Condition Guide
✨ We believe every piece tells a story — here’s how we describe the chapters they’ve lived so far:
Mint / Like New Practically time-traveled. Looks as though it’s never been used. Crisp, clean, and flawless.
Excellent Well-preserved with only the most minor signs of age (think a faint scratch or two, visible only if you squint). Structurally sound and show-stopping.
Very Good Loved and cared for. Some small signs of wear — maybe light surface marks, gentle fading, or a touch of patina — but nothing that distracts from its beauty or function.
Good Has earned its character. Noticeable wear such as scratches, discoloration, or finish loss, all consistent with age and use. Still fully functional and fabulous.
Well-Loved / As-Is This one has stories to tell. Expect visible flaws or wear (chips, cracks, missing parts), but still worthy for display, repurposing, or as a collector’s gem.
