The candlesticks are constructed from solid brass, featuring a cylindrical stem that rises from a round, weighted base to ensure stability. Over time, the brass surfaces have developed a natural patina, adding depth and character while reflecting the age and authenticity of the pieces. Atop the brass frames rest amber-tinted glass shades, carefully shaped to diffuse candlelight softly and evenly. This combination of brass and colored glass is characteristic of jakobsson’s work, highlighting his skill in blending materials to produce a warm and atmospheric illumination. The glass shades fit securely, indicating thoughtful design focused on both aesthetics and functionality. The dimensions of the candlesticks are approximately 13 cm in diameter and 23.5 cm in height (5.1 by 9.3 inches), giving them a balanced and elegant profile suitable for various interior settings. These pieces exemplify jakobsson’s refined approach to lighting, where sculptural form meets practical use, resulting in objects that are both decorative and functional.
