A cast iron Christmas candle holder, patented 17 May 1921. The item is in the shape of holy leaves with clusters of red berries interspersed among the leaves. The space for the candle is at the center within the leaves. On the bottom of the candle base is the stamped inscription "PAT 5 17 21." With some areas where the pain has chipped off and some soiling, the overall condition is good.
