Description from the seller

Driade “Matthew Boulton II” brass candelabrum designed by Giuseppe Chigiotti (Italy, 2005). It is a fine example of postmodern Italian design: the five sculptural arms spring from a central stem, each tipped with a tapered socket for a taper candle. The body is solid brass with a polished nickel plating, giving a rich silvery finish. Overall dimensions are 25 × 25 × 16 cm (the height is 16 cm). Driade box is included, preserving the item’s provenance.

Condition: This piece is pre-owned. It shows use-related wear consistent with its age: there are minor scratches and small dings to the plating, and slight oxidation in places, which lend a vintage patina.

It combines classical flair with modern minimalism, an intriguing counterpoint in any interior. Its designer pedigree (Giuseppe Chigiotti), limited production era, and unmistakable style make it a distinctive collectible accessory.

Dimensions: 25 cm (W) × 25 cm (D) × 16 cm (H).
Designer/Brand: Giuseppe Chigiotti for Driade (Italy, 2005).
Material: Brass, polished nickel-plated.
Condition: Pre-owned vintage, with some wear (as shown). Includes original box.
