Product description
Set comprising a tapered candlestick and a square bowl in solid bronze, in an expressive, textured Brutalist style. Each of the two elements bears an engraved inscription in a scarified style: - "Angels' share" (on the candlestick) - Well-defined place" (on the dish) The surface has been polished unevenly, bringing out certain browner areas. This deliberate effect develops a contrasting patina, evoking the wear of time while retaining a certain brilliance. The set is unsigned, but strongly evocative of a 1980s French artisanal production in the style of "En attendant les barbares". ________________________________________ TECHNICAL DETAILS : - Designer: Unidentified - Manufacturer: Unidentified, France - Period: Circa 1980 - Materials: Solid bronze - Finish: Golden-brown patina, partial polish, scalloped engraving ________________________________________ DIMENSIONS : - Candlestick - Height: 20 cm (7.87 in) - Base diameter: 5 cm (1.97 in) - Dish - Height: 1 cm (0.39 in) - Width: 13.5 cm (5.31 in) - Depth: 13.5 cm (5.31 in) - Total weight: 1.65 kg ________________________________________ CONDITION: Very good overall condition.
