David Zelman Sculptural Stainless Steel Candelabras Circa 1980
About the Item
A rare pair of sculptural candelabras designed by David Zelman for Prologue 2000, Inc., NYC, circa 1980s. These dynamic pieces are crafted from brushed stainless steel, reflecting Zelman’s distinctive architectural and geometric design language. The interplay of rectilinear and curved forms gives each candelabra a striking, Constructivist-inspired profile, simultaneously bold and minimal.
Produced through Zelman's design firm Prologue 2000, the candlesticks feature a stainless steel framework and chrome accents. Each candle sits on an extension that is vertically adjustable and can be turned 360 degrees. Marked, Prologue 2000, Inc., N. Y. C., on the bottom.
The C shaped candlestick measures 28" H x 13.25" W x 2.5" D
The rectangular candlestick measures 31.75": H x 10.5" W x 2.5" D
David Zelman has been creating objects that function as furniture for the past 20 years. His work can be found in the permanent collections of the Brooklyn, Kohler, Yale and Cooper Hewitt Museums. In addition, he founded and designed objects for Prologue 2000, Inc. a manufacturing and design firm. In his sculptural work he attempts to pay homage to the work of man, therefore his images of bridges, scaffolding, elevators, wheeled objects, and the like call attention to these often overlooked basics of our existence.
