Description
Decorative vintage brass candle holder in the shape of three stylized, running deer. Each deer's antlers support a tea light holder, creating a particularly warm and atmospheric light when candles are used.
The design is typical of Scandinavian mid-century objects from the 1960s and 1970s. The dynamic depiction of the animals gives the candle holder a sculptural quality, making it both a functional candle holder and a decorative design object.
The base features a velvet lining with the embossed manufacturer's mark "D&C," indicating that it is a Scandinavian design piece from this period.
This candle holder is perfect as:
• Table decoration
• Sideboard decoration
• Winter or Christmas decoration
• Mid-century interior object
With candles, the brass creates a particularly beautiful golden light reflection.
