This large, hand carved altar stick retains its original, hand forged iron pricket; sitting over a broad drip pan that surmounts a bluster turned and carved stem, with a fluted urn at the center. The bottom of the stem is a straight cylinder that rests atop a square base with small, ball feet. It retains traces of old, pink and gray paint. We have several similar pricket sticks in stock and they would be handsome as a group.
