The composition is structured around a spherical central knop supporting a tapered, truncated cone, forming a clear geometric profile. The hardwood, finished with a light lacquer, retains visible grain and tonal variation, providing a natural counterpoint to the metal elements below. The bases are constructed from layered circular forms in brass and copper, now displaying a developed patina that introduces contrast and depth to the overall composition. This juxtaposition of organic material and industrial metals aligns with the modernist sensibilities of the period, where material contrast and simplified geometry were central to the Art Deco aesthetic. Each candlestick measures approximately 6.3 inches (16 cm) in height with a base diameter of 3.9 inches (10 cm), making the pair suitable for use on a dining table, mantel, or as part of a decorative arrangement. Condition is good vintage, with surface wear to the lacquered wood and oxidation and patina to the metal components consistent with age and use. There is some minor denting to the metal bases. Both candlesticks remain structurally sound. See less
