Four small gleams of light, brought together in a set of crystal candle holders with a free and sculptural design typical of the 1970s. The crystal, thick and perfectly transparent, is crafted with flowing movements. Four points rise around the candle like the irregular petals of an open flower. The curves are never quite straight, the material catches the light differently depending on the angle, and the thick bases give these small pieces a striking presence. One can imagine the four candle holders aligned in the middle of a long table, between beautiful white tableware and some antique glasses. As evening falls, the flames reflect in the thick crystal and cast a moving light onto the tablecloth. For a more intimate dinner, two can be placed on the table while the others gently illuminate a console or a mantelpiece. In a more contemporary interior, they work just as well grouped on a tray, paired with a few books and a glass vase. Their transparency allows them to fit in anywhere without weighing down the decor. Even without candles, the four assembled forms create a lovely small sculptural glass set. The four candle holders have gone through the decades together and are offered as such, forming a particularly harmonious composition. Height approximately 7-8 cm. Width approximately 7 cm. Circa 1970.
