Almost every home has a candelabra of sorts, mainly to provide lighting during the night.

The origin of the term suggests that on the top of the disk was a spike to carry a wax or tallow candle (candela or funalia). Besides these bronze candelabra, of which there are many varieties in museums, the Romans used more ponderous supports in stone or marble, of which many examples were found in the Thermae. 

They usually feature the following parts:

• The column or stem, which is the main part supporting the branches
• The branches, which jut out to form the candelabra
• The nozzle, which is where you place the candles
• The base, which supports the entire structure and the weight of the candles
• The capital, in which the candle is held firmly
• The knop or shoulder, which is a knob created for ornamental purposes
• The well, which could be on the base. Its purpose is to catch the molten wax
• The wax pan or drip pan, which captures the molten wax before it reaches the well.
