triple candlesticks (paschal candles) (candlesticks, candleholders, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Specialized candlesticks or arrangements of candles used in various Christian traditions on Holy Saturday prior to Easter. The device may comprise a specialized candlestick, three candles tied to a reed or bronze rod, or a candle having three branches. In western tradition, it was largely replaced by the large paschal candle due to liturgical revisions of Pope Pius XII in the 1950s. It is commonly used in eastern Christian traditions. An example of usage is when the three candles of which the device is composed are successively lit as the priest proceeds up the aisle of the church in the "Lumen Christi" ritual; the large paschal candle at the front of the church may be lit from the triple candlestick.
