Sculptural candlestick, wrought iron & glass, attr. Bolin Smide, Sweden, 1970s

About the Item

The alliance of brutalism and delicacy. The curved wrought iron structure is connected to thin and unalterable rods welded to each other. The glass candlesticks, encased in iron rings, display small drops of glass as if frozen before a final fall. The beautiful patina of the metal contrasts wonderfully with the perfect transparency of the glasses. Entirely handmade Swedish work giving pride of place to traditional artisanal techniques.
