Iron Candlestick, Brazilian Mid Century, Modernist

About the Item

The candlesticks are an embodiment of Brazilian mid-century modern design, created with iron—a material often used during this era for its durability and malleability. These particular pieces have a minimalist aesthetic, featuring clean, flowing lines that form both the base and the holder, which speaks to the design movement's emphasis on both form and function. Manufactured by LBI (Leuchtenbau Ilsfeld) Trier Morche, a company recognized for its metalwork and lighting fixtures, these candlesticks reflect the innovative design spirit of the period. The iron used allows for slender yet sturdy construction, and the candlesticks likely have a weighty feel, which ensures stability. Their condition, as vintage pieces, is very good, with the material showing a little bit of patina that adds character and indicates their age and authenticity. These pieces have served as functional decor in their time, providing a source of ambient light as well as a sculptural element to a room's design. As a pair, these candlesticks would been used to add symmetry and balance to a space, which was a common practice in mid-century interior design. Their timeless style allows them to seamlessly integrate into contemporary decor.
