The brass has an old golden patina, slightly darkened by natural oxidation, characteristic of pieces left untreated for several decades. The construction, using welded rods, gives the pieces a visual lightness despite the material's solidity. The formal vocabulary—organic curves and stylized plants—is in keeping with the Art Nouveau style, reinterpreted here in a more restrained and industrial style typical of European production in the 1960s.
Suitable for use as a table, mantelpiece, or interior decoration.
