Tall Mid-Century Modern Sculpted Walnut and Enamel Candleholder by Ernest Sohn

About the Item

Large candlestick/votive holder by enamelist, Ernest Sohn, in solid, deeply sculpted walnut with enamel panel decoration (ca. 1960s, USA). Enamel boasts beautiful blue and aqua tones contrasting nicely with the rich walnut tone and brass accent. Given its tall size, works well as a single candlestick but pairs/groups well with Scandinavian holders in similar rich wood tones (teak, rosewood). Excellent, vintage condition. Unsigned. H: 14.5" x L: 2.13" x D: 2.13"
