Description from the seller
Silver candelabrum with green-fired enamel – Scandinavian design, 1970s – 485 g
Description
Elegant and sculptural candelabrum made of contrasted silver and fire enamel, a representative work of Nordic design from the 1970s.
The piece stands out for its wide circular tray decorated with spectacular vitreous enamel in intense greens.
The central candlestick, also fire-enamelled, combines green and reddish tones on a metallic background. The truncated conical base provides stability and reinforces the minimalist aesthetic characteristic of Scandinavian design of that era.
The piece retains its original hallmarks, partially legible due to natural wear. A numeric mark ending in "32" (632 or 832), together with a letter "R", in addition to another mark of difficult interpretation. The exact identification of the workshop or manufacturer could not be determined with total certainty.
Its excellent craftsmanship, the richness of the enamel, and its balanced proportions make this candelabrum a very decorative and collectible piece, suitable for both contemporary interiors and for 20th-century silver and artistic enamel collections.
Condition
Very good overall condition.
The enamel shows intense shine and excellent visual presence. The silver shows slight signs of use and small surface marks in line with the age and normal use of the piece. No appreciable restorations.
