Description from the seller
Hand-Forged Iron Figural Candleholder Group, Five Pieces, circa 1970
A sculptural group of five hand-worked iron objects comprising four elongated standing figures and a smaller animal-form candleholder. The expressive proportions, forged surface decoration and individually formed accessories give the group a strong presence as both decorative metalwork and a collectible ensemble.
The value of the group lies particularly in its complete ensemble character. The four tall, slender figures share a consistent construction while retaining individual poses, accessories and silhouettes. The two arched candleholders add substantial vertical presence, while the spiral-bodied animal piece provides a contrasting sculptural form.
Vintage condition with naturally developed surface patination, tonal variation and traces consistent with age and handcrafted ironwork. The individual construction and forged surfaces remain visually strong. It will be shipped exactly as shown in the photographs, so please examine all images carefully.
Dimensions: Largest figure approximately H 50 cm x W 16 cm x D 6 cm.
Animal-form candleholder approximately L 14 cm.
