Presenting:
An exceptionally rare and highly uncommon, pristine TRUE PAIR of authentic circa 1950s–1960s Mid-Century Modern geometric "U-Shaped" double taper candlestick holders by celebrated German - American designer Ernest Sohn. This sculptural set beautifully highlights the sleek geometric profiles and "Glam" accents that defined mid-century high-end table service.Each holder features a smooth, glossy ivory ceramic body accented by a thick, striking 22k gold band that runs seamlessly across the lower base. Architecturally styled with a negative-space horseshoe arch, each piece holds two standard taper candles. Strikingly modern and minimalist, these serve as impactful dining room centerpieces or mantel accents when lit, and function as standalone ceramic art when empty. Both pieces are fully authenticated with the original "Ernest Sohn Creations" maker's stamp cleanly impressed on the underside.
Why We Love It:
Real 22K Gold Details: Features genuine 22-karat gold gilt detailing, typical of Ernest Sohn's premium luxury studio lines from this era.True Mid-Century Provenance: An authentic piece of mid-century Americana design, predating the later 70s mass-market trend of this silhouette.Flawless Collector’s Set: Finding two matching candleholders from this period in pristine, unused condition is extremely difficult.
Condition:
Pristine Vintage Condition - Investment Quality. This pair has been meticulously preserved. There are absolutely no chips, cracks, hairline breaks, repairs, or underlying glaze crazing. Notably, the 22k gold bands show zero vintage patina, AND ONLY VERY SLIGHT rubbing, thinning, or wear from previous cleanings—retaining their bright, uniform original luster.
