1. WMF Red Glass Candle Holder by Cari Zalloni (ca. 20.5 cm, 1960s–70s)
A sculptural masterpiece by acclaimed designer Cari Zalloni, known for pushing boundaries in glass and ceramic design. Created for WMF during a prolific era, this ruby red candle holder reflects the daring aesthetic of 1960s avant-garde.

Subtle and sophisticated, this lilac vase features a soft gradient and gently flowing form, echoing organic shapes favored in mid-century design. It exudes calm elegance and is ideal for minimalist floral arrangements or as a standalone design statement.
