Definition
Plural of bobeche; multiple circular rings designed to catch candle wax on candelabras or candlesticks.
Etymology
Plural form of bobeche; the term became common in English decorative arts terminology during the 18th-19th centuries when ornate candelabras were status symbols.
Kelly Says
A single ornate candelabra might have a dozen bobeches, and in candlelit dining rooms, these glass rings would create a shimmering crown of light—it was the 1700s version of mood lighting.
