Rare pair of 1920s metal candlesticks by danish metalworker Just Andersen

About the Item

These exquisite candlesticks exemplify the epitome of 1920s Art Deco elegance, crafted by the skilled hands of Danish metalworker Just Andersen. Standing as a testament to the era's fascination with geometric forms and streamlined aesthetics, these pieces exhibit a rare and captivating elegance. Fashioned from Disco metal, an alloy of lead and antimony, these candlesticks bear the hallmark of Andersen's ingenuity and innovation. Named after the Disko Bay of Greenland, where the artist spent his formative years, Disco metal not only reflects Andersen's personal connection to his homeland but also showcases his pioneering spirit in material experimentation. The sleek lines and graceful curves of these candlesticks are a testament to Andersen's mastery of form and his ability to marry functionality with artistic expression. Each element, from the slender stem to the geometric base, is meticulously crafted, exuding a sense of timeless sophistication. As quintessential examples of Art Deco design, these candlesticks encapsulate the spirit of an era defined by its pursuit of modernity and luxury. They stand as enduring symbols of Just Andersen's contribution to the decorative arts, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of glamour and refinement.
