Pierre Forssell Brass Candleholders Made by hand in Skultuna Sweden. Brancusi
About the Item
This series of candleholders was hand crafted in the 1970's at the Skultuna factory next to the studio were Pierre Forssell was working with he's assistant. The candleholder is made of brass. Simple, minimal and elegant at the same time. The incurved top provides some warm reflection. Pierre was inspired by Brancusi when visiting the museum in Stockholm. The size is great to be used on a table, on a buffet or on a desk. But more than a candleholder it's a sculpture. We do have more exemple in our collection. Feel free to reach out for others models.
They are stamped 1981, 1982, 1983 and 1985 all comes from the artists studio and was handcrafted by himself and his craftsman.
