In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, the smoky torches of resinous wood, which formerly had been used to provide additional light in the rooms of castles, were generally restricted to use at outdoor events. Candles mounted in wall brackets, chandeliers, or candlesticks, and in some cases, oil lamps, were used to light interiors. Common candles made of tallow had wicks that needed constant trimming and burned with an unpleasant smell. The better quality candles, made of beeswax and used with pricket candlesticks, were so expensive that only the wealthy could afford them.

Etruscan The city of Vulci was famous in antiquity for its production of luxury bronzes. One popular type of item was the tripod, an elaborate stand to support either a cauldron or a brazier. Tripods were produced at Vulci for about seventy years, from about 540 to 470 B.C. This example is elaborately decorated with lion's-paw feet surmounting frogs, wild beasts attacking their prey on the arches above elegant palmette motifs, and a pair of mythical subjects at the top of each of the vertical rods. These depict the divine twins Castur and Pultuce (Greek: Kastor and Polydeukes), Hercle (Greek: Herakles) and his protectress, the goddess Menrva (Greek: Athena), and two satyrs. The three subjects do not have any obvious connections to one another. Stylistically, the execution of these small figures is similar to that of the related depictions of the divine twins on the pair of bronze volute handles (64.11.4a, b) in a nearby case..
