<registered cultural properties no.454> This is a brass candle stick in the shape of a traditional lamp keeper. Two candle holders are put on the lotus-shaped pedestals and the height is adjustable with the holes through the lower part of the stick. The petaloid screen and the assembled pedestals show modernity distinguished from the butterfly or bat-shaped screen and the inseparable pedestals of korean traditional lamp keepers. This candle stick is of great worth in korean history and craft as a well-made household item.
