View MoreAbout
Made by French ceramist Georges Pelletier in the early 1970s, the two columns of this wild ceramic sculpture each conceal a candle. The flickering light of the candles escapes from the backs and tops of the columns, creating a fascinating effect. Alternatively, the piece could be wired to accept ordinary light bulbs, at a small extra cost. This is a piece with a lot of presence, in any room.
