About the Item
Ernst Svedbom, 1913-2004, Goldsmith AB for Swedish Tenn was a Swedish artist and craftsman active during the first half of the 20th century. He is particularly known for his work in pewter, such as the pewter lions used as candleholders, which were created in Sweden in 1932.
Svedbom worked during a period when Swedish art and design were strongly focused on functionality and craftsmanship, often with a modernist aesthetic influenced by contemporary movements. He was skilled in metalworking and is perhaps best known for his decorative objects that often combined practical function with aesthetic elegance.
The lions used as candleholders are a great example of how Svedbom blended classical motifs, like the lion, with a modern design language and functional use. The details in his work show a great attention to both material and craftsmanship, making his pieces popular during his lifetime and collectible today. The lions in question not only represent his skill as a craftsman but also the design ideals of the time.
The candleholders have developed a patina over time, which includes some scratches. This patina adds character to the pieces, reflecting their age and history. Marked: Elm H F8.
