An expressive swedish three-light pewter candelabra by svenskt tenn, combining the elegance of art deco with the decorative character of swedish grace. The apparent f8 date mark suggests manufacture in 1932.
beautifully balanced, the design features sweeping arms surrounding an open central ring, creating an airy silhouette with a strong sculptural presence. Three fluted candle sockets rest above rounded details, lending a refined architectural rhythm to the composition.
the distinctive centerpiece is a rounded ornamental element featuring a horse in relief, framed by flowing foliage. Its textured surface contrasts with the smooth curves of the arms and the broad oval base, giving this compact candelabra visual depth.
the pewter has a soft silver-gray tone with darker patination that emphasizes the relief and adds warmth and character. At approximately 0.9 kg, the piece has a substantial feel for its size.
equally attractive as a decorative sculpture or a candlelit centerpiece, it would complement a scandinavian interior, an art deco setting, or a contemporary room furnished with vintage objects.
the candelabra retains visible wear consistent with age and use, including surface scratches, darkened areas, small marks, and minor unevenness along the base rim. These details are illustrated in the photographs.
