Product description
An elegant, two-armed candle holder featuring a distinctly modernist and organic form, manufactured in Germany by the renowned WMF (Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik) firm. Its design is based on an iconic 1958 creation by Kurt Radtke, embodying the finest qualities of Mid-Century Modern and Space Age aesthetics.
The piece features a dynamic, arched arm topped with two decorative bobeches (drip pans) containing deep sockets designed for standard candles. The entire structure rests on a distinctive, geometric triangular base and is joined by a decorative central rivet. The body is entirely silver-plated. The underside of the base bears the original stamped WMF maker's mark, attesting to its authenticity and quality craftsmanship.
